                            What happened there, it posted before I had finished. I told you I wasn't good with confusers. I'll start again.

                            1. Trunky. Woodland Reflections. Great composition with the angles of the trees creating triangular leading lines.

                            2. Roders. Flower & Water. Good thinking outside of the box with strong colour, but including the theme requirement, without it being the main point of interest.

                            3. Trunky. Puddles & Prickles. Another good composition, with the S-shaped path leading the eye into the picture. Again, water is including but isn't the main subject.
