Congratulations to hermes2015 on winning this edition of the photo challenge with his "Fire" themed photo #15!  Thank you to all who voted, and another round of thanks to those who submitted entries (especially Guardian85, whose sea/landscapes are splendidly evocative; I hope you will continue to be one of the usual suspects in these challenges).  :)

5 and 17 are pictures of the lake behind the school where I got my wheel loader licence this spring. Took those pictures just as the ice was melting off the lake.
Picture nr 9 is this place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kjeungskj%C3%A6r_Lighthouse. Taken at about 15:00 in early December.
13 is the Andenes Lighthouse (in my original hometown)under the midnight sun. Fun fact: I used to give guided tours of the tower when I worked for tourist information.
