The requirement is for you to photograph the subject
Item 20. A military vehicle on a public road
Thatâs fine.
Then there are three bonus items. They are unrelated in that the first bonus does not have to be met in order for the second to be valid
So one vehicle is not olive green.
Two points

Seven of Nine
My final, and somewhat tongue-in-cheek entry for this year. Last year we planted 10 oak seeds but only nine sprouted. The small oak trees, seven of which are pictured here will be planted out this Autumn. Mini 3 Pro 29/8/2024, Bangor
23. Seven trees - exactly seven, obviously isolated from any others
- Bonus for both deciduous and evergreen trees in same clump of seven
No scale models involved here, these are actual trees, though I suppose one could argue theyâre saplings not trees, but otherwise they fulfil the brief as above?
Anyway enough of all that, a point (or not) please at the committeeâs discretion.
Good luck to all those that are still in!

23. Seven trees - exactly seven, obviously isolated from any others
A young tree with a slender trunk is known as a sapling. Just as a young duck is called a âduckling,â a young tree is called a sapling. The suffix â-lingâ comes from Old English and often shows up today at the end of words to mean âyoungâ or âyoungster.â
Baby trees.
In pots so not in contact with any others.
All deciduous.
So only one point.
Sneaky wee bu**er!
Well done, Paul and thanks for your contributions to this yearâs Challenge. We are now holding you fully responsible for these trees and expect reports and pictures when they are planted out and progress pictures as they grow

Given that this competition seems to be less about the subject and more about the loophole we are surprised that you didnât site and write a wiki article yourself!
Three points for the old lighthouse!
And three for the sports ground.
You have your self-imposed score of 10 but please, keep going !
