I had a look on iplayer this evening to see my mate Lawrence's photo in the countryfile final 12 only to discover that Cheryl's squirrel has made it as well. So I clearly move in exalted circles. Well done to both and I'm not saying how I voted! Eric

yes, there were some nice images in the final 12. I particularly liked the Orange Tip and Cheryl's squirrel. Well done to the finalists, there may be a few of them lurking on UKNP.

Did you notice Richard Peters doing the pre judging as a previous winner with Spring Lamb.
Congratulations to all

Thanks for noticing Eric, I would say the fiver is in the post, but I get the feeling you may have voted for your mate's image
I know not all agree with the BBCs rights grab and I did debate entering for a long time, in fact only sending the entry one day before closing. I weighed up all the pros and cons of a potential win and decided to give it a go. Which so far with added interest in the website is probably paying dividends against the possibility of me selling the image. Plus I think I kept the best 5 images for myself

Congrats, and well deserved.
