    Hey Paul - I'd love to help you out - but from the other side of the pond! What if I shoot the image in Cambridge, or London..... Ontario??? Will that count??

    Best of luck to you!

    Paul: I can shoot it in Peterborough, Whitby, Newcastle, Darlington, Northumberland, Alnwich, I do not want to go to Cambridge or London as Andrew has those covered.

    Best of Luck

    Cheers:

    Allan

    Paul, I could go to Richmond or (not in) Surrey by a ferry trip from where I live.
    More seriously, I hope someone in the UK rises to the occasion --and maybe you or the photographer will post the winning photo.
    Best of wishes on your anniversary!

    Sadly I was on holiday until Sept 1st, otherwise I'd have happily got up and traveled to Hampshire to a location of your choice perhaps and attempted some shots for you. Perhaps I can do one for your 11th anniversary instead

    I can't believe no-one rose to this challenge... ...i'm guessing the 2 day warning wasn't enough time for some people to set their alarm clocks

    Having thought about it, I think it would have meant a lot more to you and your wife if you had shot the photograph. You had a couple of days to do a bit of research into basic landscape composition. Why didn't you DIY?!
