This turned out to a difficult assignment with only 1 member submitting images. This was probably due to a lot of factors, lack of time, technical challenges, or lack of enthusiasm for the subject. I set the assignment to get away from a recent spate of close up topics and thought that given the time of year and shortened days, we could expect some good sunrises and sunsets at a time of day when we could appreciate them. Also, unexpectedly, we had, within days of setting the assignment, a spate of stormy weather bringing in dramatic skies to offset against the start of the autumn landscape.
