 Well, this is my final 4th attempt for this challenge. It has all right attributes - the leading line of lights, sea and sunset :) I spent 5 hours driving around to take it! It was very windy and I nearly toppled the tripod with my most expensive lens on it!
I will be already in Whistler when the results are in. Holding all fingers for a 6+ score.

It didn't - at 50 6.68. Still very good.

[Feb. 10th, 2011 01:05:40 PM]

Now 6.46 ie. not PB any more.

6.57 at 154, not likely to improve any more. Will it make Top 10??

YES, it made #4!

Thanks to Bear_Music for telling me indirectly that all my other ideas sucked and to get out and take something better!
