 Post Challenge: Woot - a red ribbon! Thanks to everyone for the votes and comments, I did wonder during voting if a middle 6 would be enough to sneak into the top three :-)

I really enjoyed the challenge of shooting with minimal rules. It really forces you to concentrate on what you're doing whilst taking the shot rather than being a bit sloppy and relying on post-processing to rescue you afterwards.

Good capture, but I'm unsure why this is in black and white. The colors would have been nice, I think.
