Redbridge yellow box junction

I recently received a Penalty Charge Notice from Redbridge
Council for allegedly stopping in a yellow box junction.
However, the still image provided with the notice does not
appear to be accurate. The photo shows my vehicle within the
box, but in reality I was positioned a few feet away on the line
of the junction.
I have two questions:
1: Is the ticket legally valid if the evidence provided is not a
true reflection of where my vehicle was?
2: If the evidence is inaccurate, is there a formal way to raise
a complaint or challenge this, as it could otherwise be
considered misleading or even deceptive.

without sight of the video it's not possible to give advice.
the video is the ONLY evidence of contravention, a photo is
useless.
ask them for the video and post it here.

I've watched the video and there is no offence here. You do stop
marginally in the box junction, but then move forward again and
clear it without the vehicle in front of you making any further
space. Therefore your exit was sufficiently clear at the point
of entry and no contravention committed.

I have done similar cases at the tribunal. Happy to be your
representative.
The council is inept which is to their profit.

The contravention is "having to stop due to the presence of
stationary vehicles". In the video you stop, but them after very
short pause, move forward out of the box, with the vehicle ahead
remaining stopped, so it is plainly obvious that you did not
have to stop.
However, don't expect Redbridge to roll-over and cancel, because
all they want is your money.
