On first look there are some cracking shots here - I am tempted towards 1 but I am going to have to take some time over this!

No 15 for me as it's very close to where I live.
Also enjoyd no 6 too quite original.

If I'd been a bit more thorough with my choice of photo, I'd probably be in a better position to challenge :|

Narrowed it down to 1 or 10. I went for 10 in the end, credit to everyone who entered though :smile:

Some fantastic shots this week. Particularly liked 2, 10 and 15 - but went for 10 in the end!

9 and 10 are both nice shots, I've gone for 10 as it's nice and colourful, there's a lot going on and it fits the theme slightly better.

A very tough decision this week!

I liked 7, 4, 12 and 10 particularly.

I decided to vote for seven.

But I bet 9 wins! :p

A most challenging round this week, and I almost forgot to vote! The trouble not having a working laptop of your own causes...!

I genuinely found it difficult to decide on a winner this week, with several deserving victory. 05, 06 and 10 are my favourites out of the selection, although I must confess that I struggled to think exactly where the location in 06 is! I think I know roughly, so I'm happy. Not sure if it's just me, but 05 is a tad blurry (possibly due to extreme zoom?) otherwise an excellent shot. Perhaps better with something coming the other way for that angle, although that's being really picky. 10 stands out for the multiple trains in the shot and of course for the massive amount of colour in the shot. I've had to go for 10 really, just such a good shot. I suspect it's taken from the footbridge at Clapham Junction, if so the shooter must have a good lens as I know my camera won't zoom that far!

Well done to all I say this week, an excellent round.

Thanks to the two who voted for me. I agree, not the best shot possible, not helped by:

* A lack of tripod
* Vegetation covering pretty much every angle other than this one
* Having no clue when a train would emerge from the tunnel
* Not possessing a decent camera

Resulting in a lack of colour etc.

Still, I had a great view up there, thanks for those who made comments :D.

Yet another deserved victory for curly42, I wonder what the theme will be. Hopefully it's something I can snap away with my camera on my trip out later :D

Thanks to the member who voted for my photo, glad it caught someone's imagination enough to vote for it!

Congratulations again to Curly42. Would that now be two wins in a row?

Congratulations to Curly42...that is well and truly organised(?) chaos!

Thanks also to the people who voted for mine - I make it a joint 4th finish - possibly the most votes I've had in a POTW competition :D

Oh, and apologies for the slight spelling fail of Whitechapel!

Well done, you got my vote! :)

I hope to take part in a competition once my camera gets fixed and I've got a bit more spare time.
