Congrats! It's a delicious shot and a well deserved win for an image that drew my eye from the forum front page.
Michael L NYC 99: Congratulations Yaelle! I had one of Tower Bridge as well, but I knew it couldn't best this one.
Hey, thanks Michael. It's lucky for me that the Brooklyn Bridge doesn't open or the result might have been very different :-)
Mulberry: Very nice.
But in fact it is Kings Cross Station - just across the road from St Pancras.
I know. What can I say - I was having a brain storm. By the time I realised it was too late to change the title.

Congrats Frank on your win.a terrific shot.
Congratulations on a wonderful shot and a worthy win.
Congratulations !!!
shutterbud: This is image drags your eye, but upon closer/longer examination there seems something off about it. I don't know what. Perhaps it is the unreality of the scene? That is its power but also its weakness, as if the photographer decided that what was in front of him wasn't interesting enought to shoot 'as is' and so had to manipulate both the frame and the viewer.
To ADMint, shutterbud & afterwish1
Thanks for your kind words and also I think it's fine if shutterbud feels there is weakness as well as strength in the picture. It takes all different views and opinions - life would be very boring if we didn't disagree from time to time!
KodaChrome25: Nicely photographed. Congrats.
Thank you.
Limburger: Congrats, beautiful image.
Many thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed it.
snooked123: awesome image!
Many thanks.

LOL - my eyes are fine. :-)))

The distortion is inevitable when using a fisheye. And surely in part photography is for me to show you what I see, not just to document what is there as others might see it.
NaughtyNeo: Beautiful composition.
Thank you - it is a very beautiful place which made my job much easier.
Bobo Hodls: Gee, that's creative on so many levels. Had no idea it was you, even though it reeked of your eye on things as I know it. Kudos.
Thanks Bob. See if you enjoy the rest of the set.

Thanks Dlync.
Thank you.
Jim Salvas: I loved this shot when you showed it in the m43 forum. Great work!
P.S. I went right out and bought a fisheye lens.
Thanks Jim.
My turn to say Congratulations Michael! A fabulous photo and well deserved win.
Just Ed: Great image, a real show stopper.
Thanks.
