A great set of images? Take it as red. :slight_smile:

Now it’s open to all GADC members to decide on the three images that stand on the shoulders of giants - vote for one, none all or some of the pictures to determine the winners!

E&OE

And, if you fancy entering your picture of a lake - or lakes - in the round running until April 22nd - do so here!

@group-challenges

It seems that the next round - Lakes - is causing controversy with no one really knowing how to define a lake - and that seems true for the hydrologists too!

No such problems with red, each image contained enough colour to warrant being included in this thread. The three that you have voted as outstanding though are these:

In third place we would have had @msgyorkie #s grading machine, contrasted against the mud at Frimstones quarry, Crimplesham, Norfolk.

But we are sorry to say, Mark, that there is a tie for second place so your third place is kind of honorary. Very well done though! :slight_smile:

So who tied for the honour of second? First-time entrant @Leylo1971 who had travelled a few miles from Wigan to Crosby for a night shot of the E.ON Liverpool bulk terminal

and relative newcomer @Stomper with the ICC Red Dragon over the Welsh border- and a fair distance from his home in Fleet, Hants. Congratulations to both Ady and Nigel.

The runaway winner though was long-serving contestant @Acedrone with a great shot of the Virgin hot air balloon being blown toward him by the distant fans at Yelvertoft wind farm:

Well done to Jason, this round’s worthy winner!

Super picture @Acedrone

Very diverse range of subjects. Well done all that managed to get out. Looks like we might be in for another short window of opportunities. Time to start planning.

A bit of luck and being in the right place at the right time helped.
Great job by every one my favorite was ICC Red Dragon by @Stomper , i would love to do a 360 video of the Dragon , maybe the next time i’m in Wales

Well done everyone. It was nice to have a break in weather conditions. And just a stunning shot of the balloon, without a doubt head and shoulder above all.
