Hi Mike,
Further to our chat about the Thames Lens Competition here are the details
https://thamesfestivaltrust.org/news/2017/thames-lens-winners-announced

Here is my Port of London Authority Winning image and details.

Another Time's view across the Thames
On a cloudy, dreary day, Gormley’s sculpture "Another Time" in the Thames at Limehouse admires the new homes across the Thames, while in the fore ground cranes on barges are ready to partake in new developments.

Congratulations, Iggy. Other than kudos, was there anything else on offer for the winners?
Regards

Hi Mike and Graham,
Thanks for your congratulations which is appreciated.

The prize is a 50-minute speed boat experience for two with the Thames Rockets which apparently is the ‘Ultimate London Adventure’.
Check out http://www.thamesrockets.com

We haven’t taken it yet as they have kindly issued 2 tickets valid for a whole 12 months.
A hot summer’s day might be a good time for that. I will risk taking the Lumix FZ1000 using fast shutter speeds rather than long exposures!

We have yet to take the more sedate hop on & hop off City Cruise to Greenwich and back to be used by March 2018, which was part of Yaso’s retirement presents. Looking forward to that too probably in March 2018 now.

Regards,
Iggy
