    Mercy Flight was the first scene that came to mind when thinking about OHMSS.

    Wasn't one day a bit too short for picking the favourite YOLT shot?
    It is a great thread but I would prefer when it is less rushed.

    Yes, it would also be great too, but the vote for that particular shot from YOLT grown fast ahead of the other contestant shots.
    Don't worry, I will try in this round to at least make the voting lines more longer.
    I'm also afraid that this thread would be buried by other threads.

    Sorry to hear that.....

    Good choices, but you should have called the first one 'Peter Hunts Hitchcock moment!' 😄

    There are so many great shots from OHMSS.

    Believe it or not, there are some people out there who think that Bond films only started to look good when Sam Mendes/Roger Deakins came on board. These shots (and the ones from TB and YOLT) give lie to that view.

    Not a great shot as such (and I’m not offering it up for consideration), but I wanted to post it any way. IMO, this shot really gets to the tragic heart of OHMSS.

    @Dwayne, usually also the same kinds of people who think Bond is a woman hating franchise that demeans instead of uplifts women...despite having some of the most iconically remarkable women in film history from the very beginning. It is tragic just how little people seem to know about the Bond franchise's ability to reach truly artful levels. Especially in this golden age, which OHMSS was very much the end of, where you had so many amazing talents all working as one. Brilliant photography, insane set design from Adam, directing that really cut to the heart of Bond and his world from the likes of Young and Hunt, the music that perfected every moment from Barry, the style of the costumes and Sinclair in particular, great adaptations of Fleming material, and some of the best Bond performances in the history of the franchise. Rarely gets better.

    Most of my choices have been submitted already, such as Bond's knife throw and the psychedelic ceiling, but here's a few more I like:

    OHMSS is absolutely beautiful looking. I love the anchor image.
