      :grphg: Hope you are feeling much better and back on the road to recovery MF :grphg:

      1st: "Tree Shadows": HsuH (stunning, yet so natural, shot!)

      2nd: "Shadows on the Shore": Trunky. A delightful, natural, composition.

      3rd: "The Best Fertiliser is The Shadow of The Gardener": Dave W (despite the B&W setting, it's a good set up!)

            Very difficult to choose again but here's my fav 3

            1. Shiney..........."Out of the Shadow Comes Light"...... I really like this as it's a different take on the theme. The plants remind me of fibre optic lights. They're almost glowing.

            2. HsuH...."Tree Shadows"..... A beautiful autumnal shot with gorgeous colours and the long tree shadows which are so familiar on autumn days. This photo make me want to find this place and explore it!

            3. Woo...."Sea Shadow"....Another fab photo which reminds me of the beach in my home town.

                1 Trunky - Ready to fall .... Really like the light filtering through the leaves, beautifully done.

                2 Lolimac - Stop following me .... Imagining what's going through the poor bird's head makes me smile

                3 Shiney - Out of Shadow Comes Light .... Excellent contrast of silver and black

                    1.....Shiney.....Out Of The Shadow Comes Light.....Pushing the competition title to the limit but for me this shot is spot on!

                    2.....Woo.....Leafy Shadow.....So simple, well focused and I like the soft leaf imaging of the shadow.

                    3.....Lolimac.....Stop Following Me.....I like this light hearted shot, it made me smile. :)

                      1 - Woo - Leafy Shadow. Just what it says on the tin!
                      2- M - Swansea Bay Mum & Son . A rather "arty" touch to this. It's grown on me every time I've looked at it.
                      3 - HsuH - Tree Shadows. Very much a seasonal slant on the subject, a nice photo.
