Well done Peter the best shot by a mile

Very worthy result. Well done Peter - you have the baton!

Thanks John and thanks to all those who voted for my entry. I'll put up another comp. - probably on Friday.

Well done Peter - got my vote... although might I suggest

a) B&W conversion
b) And either tripod or if you didn't have one inc the ISO to 1600 to inc the shutter speed from 1/4 to eliminate camera shake

JMHO

Thanks to Graham who posted while I was typing I think. And thanks to Clive for your constructive criticism which is very well received. I'd like to think I could set an irresistible challenge but that seems unlikely so I'll just "go wide" and for once modify the rules slightly.
