    Thanks @Benny and @CraigMooreOHMSS

    I'm torn between #6 and #9, both are beautiful looking shot for me, but I will go with #6, it's realistic, like one could pick it from a gallery to use as a desktop or cellphone wallpaper, it's really good.

    The silhouette of the cabin and also the sun reflecting its shine towards the sea, it's really a great and realistic shot.

    The color was in a great balance, and really satisfying to look at.

    So, it's #6 for me.

    I didn't get around to adding screenshots this time, but that's fine as there are a lot of real nice frames too choose from. One I would've considered submitting is when Bond kicks the fencing sword, but then again that moment works better in motion. Great palette here amongst all the blue. Strictly warm colours when not in Iceland.

    #25 is my vote - Gene therapy hallway of fun. Again, nice rich colours, lots of detail, great low angle and in the mirror we can see Bond reach for the revolver.

    It never crossed my mind before today that those DNA helix shapes were in the colours of the Cuban flag.

    A worthy winner with Bond cleaning his pistol. We don't see enough of that downtime stuff.

    @QBranch I was quite hoping for someone to nominate “Valenka sunset” and “White’s villa”, they were my 6th and 7th choices :)

    There are so many from which to choose, but I have always lived the sequoia where Bond arrives in the Bahamas: everything works abs Craig looks super cool. This is a favorite.

    Hard to argue with that @talos7
    Much like Connery in TB, he just needed to turn up.

    Christina Cole, the Ocean Club receptionist, would have made an outstanding Moneypenny.

    Well...too late, missed opportunity. And I do like Naomie Harris in that role. Though I think that someone new should take it in the next timeline, however that may be constructed.

    In terms of iconography, probably the most well known, and oft imitated and repeated...

    Unless you are misquoting that on purpose, @zebrafish, what the Nambutu embassy guy says is not "Listen to me!", but "Laissez tomber!" - "Drop it!"
