A unique place from which to view the bustle of one of the world's most frenetic cities.

The nickname of this cache comes from the remarkable sight of a red moon rising between buildings south of this objective.
This being the first night of hostilities in Iraq, I wonder of the moon knows something we don't? Unfortunately I don't carry
4000 pounds worth of professional camera around with me, so the photograph doesn't do the experience justice. It gave me
cold shivers.

As with most of the other caches I have set, this one is for the view. Sunrise/set can be spectacular - and indeed has inspired
a famous song. A clear day is fascinating for the activity, and night for technological splendour of the surrounding lights of
this heaving city.

To claim the find, you first have to tell me the the identity of the only non-permanent feature identified by name. Answers by
e-mail *ONLY* (preferably to this
autoresponder
) and wait for your for your confirmation to post as your claim. Absolutely no posting of
answers, encrypted or otherwise.

Following a suggestion the co-ordinates might be out by up to 100 feet, co-ordinates have verified with a very slight adjustment to an EPE of
22 feet. (NB: If you are standing at 51:30.498N, 0:06.986W you are in the wrong place to find the answer.)

You're in the wide open here, with a limited set of options. You shouldn't need the clue!

Makes a change for me to be walking over the bridge rather than sailing under it!

Visited this NaviCache while in the area doing some TerraCaches.

Regrettably the auto-responder doesn't, and I can't find an email address, maybe the cache owner would like to email me and I'll supply the answer to the question.

Another FTF? Well, I thought it was until I saw the autoresponder address and then twigged that it has also been listed at the other place, later confirmed. So just a first to log over here. Unfortunately, I had the same problem of a non-functioning autoresponder and thus the lowest common denominator is to include a massively cropped photograph taken from GZ that ensures that the answer to the question required to log this cache properly is not revealed to all. Very sneaky, but I love it! FTFC Sandvika.
