Competition! Competition! Competition!

Lexie sent me some photos (taken on the Malvern Hills, near where she lives) and it gave me an idea for a new project;  you've probably heard or read of travelling dwarves, whoops, no, wrong word, travelling gnomes, if not see here:

This is not exactly the same but it made me think of it - my idea is to have a competition along the lines of Lexie's photos below.  Hopefully we'll get  entries from all over the world, and the competition will end when 50 individuals have entered.  You can enter more than once and you will score higher if it is obvious where your photo was taken.  Me and my panel ("one in three and three in one") will judge it.  And no, we can't be part of the competition.

Hektomori! Also Wow!

Sandy has just pointed out this, and whilst I realise you can all see it when you click on the map, I'd missed it, so maybe you did too.  Iam well impressed, if that doesn't sound pig-headed (that's what Barney called me after I got a distinction for this blog)
