There were a few standouts for me and it was a bit of a tussle between this one and biggerrys 'What lies beneath'. I settled on this image by Zafra52 as I feel Gerrys pic had some minor PP problems at the end of the wharf.
Congratulations to both of you for posting very high quality images. They are both examples of fine artistry.

Terrific stuff Zafra - had to be good though to just edge out Gerry's pearler! Excellent choice Matt.
