That was a tough one Glyn and you judged it magnificently. There was a lot of quality in the entries so top marks to Jon, Adrian and Sandanista for winning the podium places. Congrats too to the commendeds and to JudithAnn for a nice piece of lateral thinking.

I'm planning to be there again. It'll be the Saturday for me.
Shall we start with bacon sarnies in that cafe in the side street just off the Swing Bridge again?

I asked about cityscapes, but this competition is about landscapes, so I entered one of those instead. The next person to win could always choose cityscapes as a subject if that's what people want? For this competition we should do what Dr Orloff says on the tin.

The Eden Valley is one of the most beautiful areas of England. When I drive from Durham over Stainmore summit on the A66 and cross from Co. Durham into Cumbria I never cease to wonder at the amazing scene as you look across the Eden Valley towards the Lakes.

Actually that seascape that has been entered doesn't look like black and white to me. It's mono but it's got a hint of a tint.

I'd like to enter a cityscape but daren't unless Dr Orloff gives permission.

Two pictures from my very early digital days. Both taken in June 2006 at the National Railway Museum in York on my ist DS camera with a kit lens. My limited Photoshop skills then didn't extend to noise reduction so I was amazed at the very low level of noise when I looked back at these.
The first one was handheld at 1/25th second with the lens at 43mm. The second was 1/8 second handheld at 24mm. A K10 and a K5 later I still look back on my first digital camera with affection.

Great series Bret. #4 is a cracker.

I agree with Alan, senior management should be aware of the conduct of their staff and Pentax should know just how well the dealers are trying to sell the product.
That sounds more like a Geordie accent than a Teesside one Gary.roll:

Too cool for a coat and mummy's in there are my pick. They have more of a narrative and tell a story.
