Taken at the World Masters (old fellas) Rowing Championships in Scotland. Roger was able to settle a protest by consulting the FinishLynx image.

He comments:-
"The top boat started in lane 6. In rowing you can move out of lane as long as you do not impede any other boat/s. Lane 6 drifted over into lane 7 at about the half way point then just 30m from the finish moved over again into lane 8 pushing the legal lane 8 boat almost off course. Lane 6 crossed the finishline first and vociferously celebrated their win, however they were rightly disqualified by the judges for impeding - this prompted a heated protest, lane 6 claiming lane 8 had deliberately clashed with them. BUT they didn't count on the photofinish camera capturing their illegal move."

I like this photo - just as we see curved spokes on a bike wheel, the rowers appear to be using curved oars. In the dim and distant past I recall O-Level physics where the principle was explained to us. Damned if I can remember it though.

Bob took this at a Buckley/Ladies event just outside Radcliff on Trent, and as he points out "The best bit is that all 4 of the pony's feet are off the road if you look at the shadows. (How do they do that?)"

Here's a great Lynx image from Roger. His comments? "Why not set a competition amongst your operators for the most creative image?" Well, I don't see why not so let's have a few more. The usual payment rules apply.

Seems like a new trend has started! Here, Bob added some legs (above) to go with Roger's arms. It's from stage 1 of the Tour of the South. Notice the long right foot which seems more appropriate for a circus clown.

No, it's not a toy car!

The ever watchful Bob caught this fast moving police car whilst he was carrying out his own speed check.

I often wondered whether he took any cycling images as well.

A couple of strange happenings passing the finish at the Horwich Carnival.
