POTN G-series Speed Challenge #512 - my personal treasures

Like others, I have really enjoyed these challenges and so please, Rafael, as a moderator and last winner before the introduction of AMASS, would you start a new challenge ASAP so we can get back to posting photos?

OK, I will start a new challenge then. Just a few remarks:

• post in this thread to confirm that you are thinking in a challenge that will close on Monday Dec 15. I can start it in a few hours, but there are only Friday, Saturday and Sunday to post.
  
• The next challenges will close on Dec 22 and Dec 29 respectively, so we must agree to do our best effort to keep the challenges running through the world wide Holidays.
  
• We will maintain all the rules except one:
  Photo Title in the message subject line
  The posts in the new POTN design do not have the subject line, so put your
  Photo Title in the first line of the message text, above the image. Not a big change. Do not forget the camera model.

I wish I could confirm this as you ask, but we're having a severe storm. My electricity was out for three hours this morning, and I couldn't reach the Internet at all. It might happen again. In this weather, I don't take the camera outdoors. The light indoors is poor. A theme would have to allow enough interpretation that I could use an old shot or a new bad one. So all I can do is say "Maybe, it depends."

Perhaps I was not clear: I'm not asking for a confirmation of personal participation in the next challenge.
I'm asking for a confirmation to see if the general idea of starting a new challenge in a few hours and setting the deadline to Dec 15 is a good idea or not.

Oh. In that case, I think giving a week and a half to participate is easier on participants, and maybe on the judge, than giving half a week. Then the next deadline would be Dec. 22.

Fine then, I hope to find some other opinions posted to set the deadline either to Dec 15 or Dec 22. I will be away from my computer 3 or four hours. Form the opinions found on my return, we will have the closure date set.
Thanks for posting.

Deadline Dec 22 please as some potential participants may have given up checking daily for a new challenge.

And thanks, Rafael!

22 December for me as well ߑ

Challenge #513 - December around you

is already OPEN for submissions and will close on 22 December 2014 as requested.

Thanks for your input.
