Same here. I find that having a seasonal topic too closely aligned with the challenge period makes it impossible to get a good photo taken and entered before the end-date. The extra lead time doesn't necessarily help when the deadline's too close to peak shooting opportunities. I think I'll have the same difficulty with with the January challenge - it's hard to get into the "cold" mentality when temperatures are in the mid-teens!It was a good topic but I just couldn't come up with anything, obviously I was not alone...
