    1 Sleigh Ride - Ivory. Evocative, seasonal and very unusual. Enhancement has been subtle but very effective. Quite a remarkable atmospheric image.

    2 Gothic Garden - Ivory. Works very well. I'd be happy to hang it on the wall!

    3 Imagine - WOO. Has the makings of a really first class image. Foregound and mid distance are great, but for my taste a more subtle treatment of the background would have pushed it up my rankings

    The Tower... Dave W.... Any picture that has me looking at it for more than 10secs rates high for me, this is one of them.
    The White Wood ...Ivory... You can almost see the fairies in this picture.
    The creek in jan sunshine..Dave W... Its the boat that lifts this picture above the norm.
