Could struggle with this one as there is not a lot of night up here at the moment

I did think of that, but there are some parts of the world where there's no night for 6 months of the year. You do have some night, by which I mean after sunset and before sunrise, so my apologies for keeping you up late or getting you up early!
Hopefully, there will be enough night for everyone who wants to enter.

Not necessarily, but that's up to the individual. The purpose of the monthly competition is to get us out doing things, so keep an open mind.

The sun sets at 22.06 in Aberdeen today. So you, being quite a bit further south, must get some night.Could struggle with this one as there is not a lot of night up here at the moment
It sets here at 22.02 and I know I get darkness.
Bjørn may struggle a bit up in Trondheim where the sun sets at 23.32 and rises again at 03.14 tomorrow morning, but I can't see it being a problem in the UK.
And you have all month and the nights are drawing in again (what a miserable thought that it :lol.

When does night start and finish?

Important distinction because there is a huge difference in photography between a just after sunset shot, blue hour shot and black sky shot. Personally I would regard night as the hours of darkness. Maybe the first entry is a good guide.

The judge will use common sense. Night is after sunset and before sunrise, as defined in a post above.
Best regards, John

As happened when the still running 'Heritage' competition (please don't forget it, you have 'till Wednesday!) was announced someone almost immediately posted a picture in which the EXIF data indicated it was taken some time ago. The same thing has happened here with the 'Night' competition, so just a reminder that the intention is that you have to go out and take the photograph after the competition is announced. Back catalogue entries are no no's!
