Apologies to Chrisjd. THIS is the worst photo to be voted No1!

I thought this one was funny! Padraig - didn't like last week's, don't like this week's... maybe you just have poor taste?

Just a moaner by default.

Seems like I'll have to do better next time...
How about the hanging gardens of Babylon in the foreground and a heard of wilderbeast sweeping majestically past in the back.

Better cropped square with people on the right. otherwise excellent

This picture is a cracker, a pin sharp image, exposure spot on, lovely tonal range, the light is just right to create the long shadows of the group of climbers/walkers and shows the texture of the snow. The stark almost 50/50 split between Earth and Sky lends great impact. Title is witty. Overall a picture to be proud of. C'mon Padraig can you honestly say you can do better!

Thanks all for the comments by the way, so long as I can get my swollen ego through the door I might have a pint to celebrate...
Padraig, you weren't very specific as to the problem...
...but I think I've worked it out : A number of scantily clad buxom vixens draped casually, yet artistically, over a chaise lounge in the foreground would add a splash of colour too the blueness. Only one problem - I'd rather not have to lug them up the hill myself, and I wouldn't know where to start in acquiring baby oil that worked at those temperatures...
Oli, your tenner is in the post...
BlueCube, if I made the picture square then BlueRectangle wouldn't be happy.
