Thanks Harry, much appreciated.

Hi All

Sorry i'm a bit tardy getting round to this - better late than never.

Firstly thanks to everyone for the votes and kind words - all greatly appreciated.

Surprised no-one made the link between the photo taken "up the junction" and the Squeeze song of the same name (I guess from the 80's - I'm too young to remember it but in the 90's it was covered by comedy thrash metal band Lawnmower Deth)

I am also inclined to agree with wavemachine that taking the first or second sleeper as the focus rather than the junction itself would have been better.

Congrats to Deena on the win - loved the feel of the shot and it got my vote for that reason.

UP - Cyborgs POV

A good idea and well executed - surprised it didn't get a vote. Maybe we are all a little to puritanical about our photographs!!

DOWN - I see you

Caught my eye on first look through the entries thread and I was torn between this and Deena's but there was something about the colour of the fench intruding on the Squirrel that my eye didn't like so it ended up coming a close second.
