    I found it impossible to decide this month. In the end I went for the following, simply because they caught my eye:-

    1st .............. Kedi-Gato for Simplicity. Nice, strong image.

    2nd ............. Rhyleysgranny for Beauty and the Beast. I liked the camera angle. It made a change from the 'head on' shots.

    3rd ............. Blueroses for 'Fire'. Lovely intense colour.
