    I agree, great comp this month.

    It always seems a shame that only 3 (out of 80) get a mention, so here's the list I compiled while shortlisting for my vote, of all the ones I thought were particularly above average (16 in total):
    #2 by Bootsy (Paul)
    #4 by Colin
    #11 by Soma Jones
    #14 by Paul Miller
    #26 by Emory
    #32 by Mike (PrevailingConditions)
    #38 by Kiwigrest
    #42 by Trace
    #52 by Galaxyride
    #55 by Barney
    #57 by Nicholas
    #59 by Pat (ollokot)
    #69 by Jeffmoll
    #76 by Paul (jeeperman)
    #78 by Yan
    #79 by nigpd

    So, my congrats go not only to Yan, Mike and Barney, but the other 13 above
    plus so many others of you that only just missed out on my list - I could make 16 into 32 so easily.

    We're all above average...just some of us are more so at certain times..these are great examples of the quality of work submitted to this forum every day.

    Congratulations to Mike and Barney.

    I just came back home from New Zealand. I was lucky to capture the stunning Milky Way over the historic church of New Zealand when I was just stay one night in Tekapo in April.

    Pray tell...what lens were you using and what was your exposure time....I LOVE this shot and would like to be able to do one like it someday.

    You guys must get to see a different sky than we do on this end of the world...last time I saw a sky like that at night, I was sailing in the South Seas and I am not even sure it was as pictureque as this one..again, congratulations on a superb photo and thanks for the info.

    In the beginning, I was shy to post because everyone's pics seemed so perfect - these photos show the outstanding standard that is set by this forum. I enjoy belonging.
