    After MUCH deliberation.
    1/ Ace of Spades.....Alien Dawn.
    2/WolfieKate.....Eyescape Flower.
    3/Ace of Spades.....Road to Autumn.
    Have to say, the competition from Marley, Centrepiece and DaveW, Lucky Shot, was VERY close.:dbgrtmb:

    1. Alana....Sunlit....So simple, it captures the essence of nature.

    2. Dave W....Lucky Shot....Exactly! They very rarely happen and it's well captured, depicting the 'cruel' side of nature.

    3. Hydrogen86....Foxglove....I like the way it stands out from the barren-ness behind.

    Great entries from everyone. Good luck!
