Thank you Ian for setting the challenge and judging with your considered input.
A personal thank you to you as it got me out of my corona-induced lethargy - I don't seem to have been able to lift a camera recently with concerns about other matters
I am delighted with a podium finish - Gary's feather was always going to be a hard act to follow!- congratulations also to Brian and Mike & I look forward to the next challenge

[Lavenderhill]

Congratulations to all of the winners and thank you Ian for setting the challenge; a well run competition. The standard of everyone’s photographs was high and as a ‘newbie’ I would not have relished undertaking the judging!
i am looking forward to the next challenge and learning from the experience.

[Colin W]

Well done to all those who entered this challenge, every photo is great.

Congratulations to all for such a great selection of images and particularly Gary for a wonderful winner.
I just wanted to take the opportunity to apologise to members for my lack of entries over recent months, despite being one of those that has always entreated people to join in. I had entered virtually every challenge since I joined the forum in 2012, and I always found it my way of keeping my hand in and interest when things waned but for the last few months I lost my photographic mojo somewhat, coincidentally about the time the forum went down, and have barely picked up a camera this year, but now with the purchase of new software (Luminar) this week I feel I'm getting back into it and getting back my enjoyment for the challenge.
