Amazing, I thought Lake Oenone or A Hard Life would have been vying for first and they're only equal third or fourth. Shows how much I know!
Good to see more competition.
Cheers all

Thank you, it was, indeed, a wonderful experience; so much so that I did it twice, the second time when I got the shot. Something about being out there with no-one else around, the cool zephyr floating up from the canyon......but, then again, you all know what I'm talking about!
Cheers.
