#228 was my submission. I did not notice it was 'gone' until a few days ago. I did not remove the photo from the Contest Voting thread, but I suspect that when I changed it's name to "Underground Sky" and 'fixed' a few dust spots, forum SW may have automatically removed the image from the Voting Thread. That's my theory anyway.

For those mildly interested, #228 can be seen here : https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/contest-voting/232772-sky-underground.html
Or in my "Photo Contests" album: Moe49's Album: Photo Contests - PentaxForums.com

Thank You All for the very kind comments :D

I'm not sure if its ethical to respond to this comment/question about my photo now, or wait until contest voting closes (?)
Anyway, here are my thoughts on why I felt photo #228 was an appropriate submission to the "Sky" Photo Contest :

I am taking the position that "sky", at times, can be a relative thing; an expanse appearing to stretch from a far away horizon to high overhead.
The rock ceiling in my cave photo is the only "sky" this cavern has ever known, ever, for millions of years.

Truth be known, while framing this shot I did not think of the ceiling as representing a "sky".
But later, while reviewing photos for "The Great China Adventure Survivor's BBQ & Picture Show", I was immediately intrigued by the deep blue cast* of the ceiling in this shot, and how the rock grain resembles clouds sweeping swiftly by.

klosov, Thank You for the very kind comment.
