Didn't think I would get a 9/10 rating for it though!

I was impressed myself how well (technically) the photo turned out with, let's just say, not the best camera in the world. The light conditions were next to perfect on the day, which certainly helped.It may have been the best photo that fitted the theme but not the best photo I took with my Jolla on the day. That accolade belongs to this photo. You can even see an arrow in mid flight:
The shooting girl is my daughter. The other one in the back is from another group.
BTW, this photo was also my candidate. One of the sessions the kids attended on the day was bushcraft. These are doughnuts they cooked on the camp fire:
Lastly, what is happening with the TMO image uploader? All three photos I tried to submit in this thread failed to upload. I had to touch them in Paint. Just open and save was enough, but I also took the opportunity to shrink them to 50%.

I know, technically too late. But what is time at tmo?
This is a picture of the sun taken with my N900. I think the two reflections come from the two shades of the sun filter (shown in second image) used to take the picture.
The sun filter is printed SLA parts with a foil from a 3.25 floppy disk as filter material.
The point of this image was to use the N900 as a sextant for celestial navigation. But sadly the accelerometer is not accurate enough, the mean error from six measurements was >1 °.

Sorry I haven't gotten around to tallying the votes. Thanks Macros for pm-ing me so I got an email. I've been occupied trying to figure how to fix the smashed screen on my Xperia X everyone around here pretends they've never heard of such a thing. This shouldn't have kept me from my duties, but it did.
Any way, the totals
mosen (4): imaginaryenemy, eson, Pentona, spfoo
Fellfrosch (2): robthebold, pichlo
Macros (2): peterleinchen, Amboss
catbus (1): Maemish
Pentona (3): catbus, Fellfrosch, mosen
Juiceme (1): Macros
Macros count the same, so I think we can say mosen is the winner of this month's well attended contest. Congratulations!

Also, if you're interested in pursuing this solar project further, I've got leftover eclipse glasses from which you could re-purpose the foil if you want it. According to my neighbor the photographer, it's 1 million:1 transparent (or would that be opaque?). I suppose that's about 20 f-stops. I haven't verified this, but it does work to bring the light of the sun down to a level you can stare at it.
And thanks for adding the picture even if it was late.

If only this would have been the topic for last month.
Near Guilin in China there is a cave named "Red Flute Cave".
Its overwhelmingly huge and has the most impressive stalagmite and stalactite formations I have seen till today. And here the clou: They decided to light it with colored lights, and It looks just incredibly amazing.
The best thing: The guide doesn't push you trough, you are free to roam around.
