    So sorry for the late disqualification - I have marked number 10 as disqualified and will be removing any votes it gets in the future.

    I was concentrating so much on the time that I missed the year on this one : gdwoods - St Thomas Ferry
    it was shot in 2010. :cry

    Just a note on my initial comments in the gallery. As I rolled over the 'Stars' they lit up like a Christmas tree. Please disregard them on my comments. I caught it after the first few comments.
