Ooh - I came second in the Commuter Photo Comp (well done mitchgixer6 who won)

I saw our own KB also had a finalist photo up there

If I'd know it was being voted on on FB, I'd have rallied some support :wink:

    Would that be Scotch mist?

    Good picture though.

    Can't see mine in the finalist... list.

    Ne' mind, I should get some good ones in the coming months. It's hard not to on some mornings.

    Great photo MRS. Must say yours is vastly superior to the generic sunset wallpaper shot that won.

    Thanks all - it was just an iPhone4 snap - native off the camera: the scenery did all the work and I probably didn't do it justice if I'm honest.

    Nice surprise though - 2nd one of the day - found I'm also leading the Alfa Romeo "Victor Ludorum" - a kind of generic car racing championship. Both of these things would have completely past me by if I hadn't stumbled across them - wasn't even sure what the prize was for the photo thing.

    It won because seeing the sun is so rare in Scotland, all the Scottish people automatically like (which in this case means vote for) it.
