April Competition Winners.

[GravelBen]

A range of excellent entries made for a tough decision, but here goes:

• 3rd Place: longun - quite a different take on the theme and a nice shot which makes it work well. Might have snuck into second place if the in-focus area had been just a bit sharper.

• 2nd Place: Dogsey - top stuff, first glance reminded me of an M.C. Escher drawing and I just kept coming back to look at it again.

• 1st Place: racing green - fantastic composition and exposure, draws the eye into the image and conveys a certain sense of meaning and, well, perspective!

Honourable mentions also to Yellabelly and Kinkyboots (love the idea behind these shots but just got edged out on the execution) and to Hoady who came so so close to making the podium with his vertigo-inducing effort.

Congratulations to all and over to you racing green for next month's competition...

This smiley because I am shocked to have won when there were so many really, really good images in the competition that I thought were better than mine. This one becuase I am happy This one to Ben for a) choosing such a great subject and b) choosing my pic (fivers on its way to you mate!) and this one because I haven't a clue what the next subject is. I will think a bit this afternoon while I am working (garden open to the public this afternoon). Well done to everyone else who entered for making this such a good one. Right now think RG whats it gonna be........

By the way the shot was taken at the Chelsea Flower Show around the bandstand and this is the same place the next day. Cheers

Many thanks for the second place and congrats to RG for the winning image, it's a cracker!

Thanks I'll blame the kit lens for the sharpness not being great.

Love the winning shot, contratulations
