I had a short list of 4 this week so I'll forego any HMs and jump to...
In joint 3rd this week are (drumroll)...
ImageArt with
Diptic: Tammy during a Tummy Tickle. You have cute, you have movement, you have a portrait and a story and a happy, relaxed cat.
WOTANICUS with
Palmistry. A nice, complex solid from an unusual perspective with good darks and lights. I said I'd forego HM's but fair play, whilst not actually posting B&W's to the colour thread, he's posted two pics where the colour in them could easily have been overlooked in the B&W thread to all but the most
pedantic eagle-eyed.
In 2nd this week is
deepop with
Wonderwall. A nice splat of vegetative green on a white backgound with small amounts of black and red. Lovely rain smearing adding a nice stylization to the whole thing.
Our winner this week is
terse with Sunlight.

This has so much to like in it. I love the overall designeriness, the solid grid of dark planks on a bed of moving, green water, the central ying yang of the two seals, you even managed to russle up a light and dark seal for it, that's forwrd planning. The splash of sunlight in the centre adds another layer of design and structure on top, modulating the whole pic to another level. And if you put all that aside for a moment, it's also a nice pic of a couple of seals having a cuddle. Nice work.
