FairPlay to rpm for this, can only get even better!

Is the draw completely random or do we get to vote again?

haha tried it dude! Lucky I wasn't seen as it's a wedding venue that I shoot at, so there's usually Events staff and groundskeepers around. Wouldn't wish to cause friction if they recognised me!! :D

No, but it is privately owned so technically need permission to do anything there

privatly owned,but public things up there like the falconry bit and the garden center etc, do driving up there is allowed, and also is taking pics of your own car- which is all youd say if questioned "just taking some pics of my car" :cool:

Its one entry per person, others have changed there's throughout all the other competitions, as long as there's one per person at the close what's the issue? Maybe all entries should be secret to save people 'stealing' others ideas? I put in an old photo in case I didn't have a chance to take a better one. :roll:

Well spotted, the gherkin it is :)

I've added a few of the other 'arty' gherkin shots I took to my gallery thread:

http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... c&start=25

I've been down in London for the last couple of months. Enjoying it so far, starting to know my way around a bit. Plus the weather is pretty much tropical compared with Scotland's!
