That's good to know. I plan on getting there this spring / summer. Drop the Mrs and kids off in Grosvenor Park, so they don't get bored waiting for me

Nice set, I like them.
Like Gary I think number one could be sharper, especially on the eyes. It looks to me like the focus point is on the hands.

I have never been much good at taking photos of people. I guess this is because of my engineering background. I seem to be able to understand "things" but never people.

This sums me up nicely!
I will probably sit this one out. But look forward to seeing the entries and what others can do. I don't even like taking "staged" photos of the kids. Snapshots I can deal with.

I can't see why Ted was surprised as it was an excellent photograph of a pen although I too don't recognise it so that may mean it isn't an icon.
Thanks.

It is a Parker pen. I wasn't concentrating on brand, the iconic part ( to my mind ) was the classic fountain pen nib.

Or another competition:
How many puns we can make.

I think this thread is going down the pan now

Wow! 2nd place!!
Thanks Hyram

And thanks for the speedy, concise judging.
Congratulations to Glyn.

On a humurous note. I just shouted, "Oh, I got 2nd Place". Mrs Ted says, "What's that for?". When I told her it was the pen, she said, " I thought that was rubbish". Yeah, thanks for that dear

Did you ever suddenly think DOH!!!!!!!!!

I just remembered a photo which hasn't been used in a competition previously and ( IMHO, based upon comments received) would have been a strong entry.
My tree in the fog.

Doh!!
