For the second week in a row Geoff M has secured picture of the week with his superb Kew Gardens shot. Why did I choose this shot? Well, I am very familiar with Kew Gardens as I spent a lot of my teenage years there. This shot is totally different to the normal kind of picture taken of the great glass house. The time of day, the reflections, the colour, the angle and I could go on and on with points that make this picture outstanding in my opinion. This is surrealism at its best. Hearty congrats Geoff and give my best wishes to London - my old home. Chris

Congratulations to Geoff for an excellent image, one of many in a wonderful series. Well selected Chris. It must be the year of the double - we have started with zafra52 taking two PotWs in a row, and now Geoff has done the same. And Geoff - if the rest of your pix are as good as these, put them up I say!

I can only echo what's already been said.
