    1 - Gogs - Keep on truckin
    For me it's got a real 'wow factor'.Sharp and crisp and an unusual contrast between the overall monochrome effect of the image and the bright red of the truck and green of the gate.

    2 - Trunky - Lydford Gorge
    A lovely tranquil summer scene with a good range of greens and nicely composed.

    3 - Paladin - Under Her Spell
    A really happy shot that made me smile.
