gbut: Mar 28, 2008; 😤I put the UN🇺🇳 in 🎊FUN🎉

I somehow managed to win the July contest themed Black & White with this

so I get to choose this month's theme. Due to my total lack of ideas, we'll have to settle for:

Black & Black (Interpret at will)

Happy hunting.

RULES:
This thread is for posting pics & voting.
1. One submission/poster. Note that you can change your submission as many times as you want, so long as you only have one entry when the voting begins! Edit your post to do this, please.
2. Single photos only - no video, triptychs, or multi-photo entries. Blending exposures into a single image (such as focus stacking, or HDR), is ok though.
3. Photos must be taken during the period of the contest. No pulling out old favorites!
4. Contest will be open until the last day of the month at 11:59 p.m. EST after which voting will begin.
5. Voting will continue until some time after that, probably around midnight the evening of the 2nd 3rd (because I’m a lazy delinquent).
6. Use your best judgement/good taste when venturing into territory.
7. When voting, please deploy the spoiler tag.

I or SoundMonkey reserve the right to change the rules in case I missed something really obvious that probably won't affect anyone.

Winner picks the next theme, and makes the new thread!

Atlatl, I love the huge feeling of isolation, and that light beam is great
