I am the master of my lamp;
I am the captain of my tub.
The theme for last month's contest was warmth, which I won with this picture of a puddle of snuggly baby bunnies:


This month's theme is Light in the Darkness. The winter solstice is coming, and at least in the northern hemisphere, the sun is about to come back. Do that. or do lights. or do dark and light in balance. Or something else cool.

RULES:
This thread is for posting pics & voting.
1. One submission/poster. 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 favourites!
4. Contest will be open until [at least] the last day of the month at 11:59 p.m. GMT after which voting will begin
5. Voting will continue until some time after that, probably the 2nd or 3rd.
6. Use good judgment/good taste if venturing into NSFW or potentially offensive territory. PM me or a mod if you have questions.
7. When voting, please use the spoiler tag.

I or the mods reserve the right to amend the rules if needed.

I was curious about your spelling and figured it was a reference. At first I thought it was a Philip Roth book, but eventually I figured it out by saving the image, rotating it, and looking up the in-focus sentence :D
