Well after an exciting week with almost 400 individual votes cast the votes are in and the winners have been decided. It was a hard fought battle but the prize for Best Team Photographs goes to Team Angel (pictured here with a "living statue" in Covent Garden) for their photographs capturing the architectural gems on the day. They’ll all receive Flickr pro account extensions.

The individual prize for Photograph of the Day was won by Jack Pandemian who stormed ahead with her wonderful photo of roundels on benches. She takes home the prize of the ipod shuffle. Well done you!

That just leaves us to say a big thank you to everyone that voted and to our lovely sponsor Qype for supplying the prizes.

Look out for the next London Transport Museum Flickr Scavenger Hunt coming soon to a Flickr site near you!

So the big day arrived on 6 July 2008. 26 Flickr photographers braved the adverse weather conditions to take part in London Transport Museum’s first Flickr Scavenger Hunt. Following a set of cryptic clues and challenges all linked to transport architecture the five teams roamed over the Covent Garden area to capture their targets.

There were thrills and spills but all teams made it back (just) to the finish line. Most of the clues were deciphered although oysters proved a red herring and Embankment Pier took a bit of cryptic crossword knowledge.

The winners on the day of the first past the post prize were Team Elephant and Castle who were duly rewarded with champagne and tin of chocolates. But everyone’s a winner at London Transport Museum so there were goodie bags for everyone that took part.

There are two more prizes to go and we need your help to decide who gets them.

Best team photographs - which team did the best job of capturing the targets
Best photograph - who took the best shot of the day

Check out each teams blog and vote for your favourites. The vote will close at midnight 20 July 2008 and results will be revealed the following day.
