    A richly deserved win - well done! Probably the best submission I've ever seen in any of the comps.

    And to the single kind soul who voted for my contribution - "bless your cotton socks"

    Congratulations Getafix ... it was a winner in my books all along ... a beautifully captured photograph exquisitely enhanced. Deserves a place on a wall.
