How could this not be the POTW? It's a stunning image, beautifully crafted and beautifully converted to B&W. I took one look and knew I could search no further. Well done Sylvia!

Nearly missed this excellent shot but I would like to add my congratulations on a perfectly timed photography that demands to be printed large and hung.
