Since we had no submissions for November I went into the archive a picked the topic from challenge 53, figured it felt appropriate for the new year.

Please bear in mind the following rules... Failure to follow any of them can result in your picture being disqualified:

• This is a monthly challenge, so pictures can not be taken prior to Monday, January 1st or after Wednesday, January 31st. Submissions that were not taken between those dates will be removed.

• Post your pictures as links with the title "#465: <Picture Title>".

• Only one submission per challenge.

• In order to verify the photo was taken during the contest period you must upload to a site that does not strip the EXIF data. Because of that we only allow submissions from the following domains. [ OneDrive, Flickr, Picasa, Min.Us, Smugmug, 500px.Com, Deviantart.Com, Google Plus Or Playlookit.Com ] This will allow the mods to validate the photos qualifies. Please note that the new reddit photo-hosting system strips the EXIF data so we're not able to use it as a host.

Be creative, and most importantly...Have Fun!
