Well, I certainly don't think my image was the best submitted that
day.  There must have been one accepted for the Premium Collection or
at least one a bit more artistic.  I don't know whether it is random
or just a case of "Let's pick one that would be interesting to a wide
audience including non-photographers."

Yeah - that's the one I saw.  Got a chuckle out of it and, quite apart
from the humour, it's a well composed and colourful photo.

I sometimes wonder how they choose 'Image of the day'.  I'm guessing
that it's an automated process that selects an image randomly.  Some of
the ones I've seen are pretty ordinary (unlike yours, I hasten to add!)
and I can't imaging that they've been chosen by a real person.

Thanks for looking, Brian and Boris.  I think most here have seen that

Well done! Though it seems that you accidentally included the private

Well done Dan but that link doesn't show the image - at least not to me.
 All I get is a Google Reader site asking me to create an account.

Was the image one called "Women's Wear"? - saw it this morning in my
Sage reader (Firefox add in).
