WINNERS, WINNERS, WINNERS




Judge Cantflywontfly says:


"First of all, a big thank you to those who entered!!

Although there were just 8 entries this time round, each shot could have taken a place on the podium... narrowing it down to just three was extremely tough, as all the shots were outstanding and unique".

1st Place goes to:




ManuelL!!



...


"This shot is just spectacular!!

Not only has it captured the landmarks of london, but the mood and feel of the shot reminds me of something out of sherlock holmes!! the stormy weather with the lightning just tops it all off. A truly british shot!"






CONGRATULATIONS ManuelL!!!!










"Second place goes to Skunkworks!"


...


"Not only has Skunkworks managed to pinpoint the exact location of my house in this shot, he also seems to have found my local pub  Grin

add to the fact that the aircraft is my all time favourite, and the beuatiful english countryside, an excellent shot, well done!! "








and third goes to DaveSHQ with


...


"A beautiful shot of a beautiful aircraft!! very simple, very crisp and great composition. this shot really shows off possibly the most iconic british fighter of all time. "







Congratulations all, and thank you all for entering!
Tune in for the next one folks, when ManuelL will be on the JC bench!!



Deano

Cairngorm Mountain Railway


The Cairngorm Mountain Railway is the highest railway in the United Kingdom since it opened in 2001. The two-kilometre long funicular ascends the northern slopes of Cairn Gorm,

the United Kingdom's sixth-highest mountain. The route is located within the Cairngorms National Park, the largest National Nature Reserve in Britain,

near to Aviemore in the Highland council area of Scotland. The ski area also lies within the Cairngorms National Park.

It is publicly owned, being operated by Cairngorm Mountain Limited

and wholly owned by the Highlands and Islands Enterprise.

Good luck all.

Sorry Deano I wasn't critiquing the 'ARE' in capitals! I was trying to emphasize that I still believe the Concord shot is a photo!  Grin  Smiley
Question are British overseas territories included in UK/GB?  Huh

Shoot!
Missed this one....sorry guys Sad
I wanted to participate.......just lost track of time this month Embarrassed
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
