This week's PotW has been selected by wendellt (Wendell)......  Wendell wrote:With so many fine images on display this week I choose this one by Geoff M from the series titled Evening Storm  It has a lot of good qualities such as composition, tone, mood and light. Photography is mostly about light and waiting for the right moment to capture the best light in any given situation. It also reminiscent of an Ansel Adams image. Original thread hereOther honourable mentions that made this a hard POTW are The sepia tones 'V8 Supercars - Friday Practice' from Rooz Chimp with watermelon 'Chimps at Monarto' by Big V and the compositional value of 'Glass' by Stubbsy Congratulations Geoff M

OMG, I did not realise my shot had been selected as POTW until now. I have my browser set to open on the 'Board Index' page rather than the portal page! Thank you all so much for your very kind comments. Thanks also to Wendell for choosing my image amongst what have been many equally worthy images.
