It’s a sin you can’t enter the iPPAs. I am most envious of your quirky viewpoints.

Thank you.
It's an actual confirmed superpower of mine, runs in the family.Yes, rizole Rizole seems to have a different way of “seeing”.
On the downside so does dyslexia and theres good evidence I've got that too.
Put me in a contest that requires fast, innovative and accurate pattern matching and manipulation and I can hold my own. But dont ask me to spell 'field' correctly more than half of the time if anyone's life depends on it.

Luckily, it so rarely does.
(I’ve tried this argument - without success - for analysis of variance exams and the like... )

It's not even my banana.
True but when it does it can be awful. I lost 15 good comrades on the day of the twelth annual northern intercounty spell off when I failed to correctly spell freind. I still wake up screaming the rule "i befor e except after c" in a frantic sweat. Some times I can only calm myself down by spelling Mississippi ten times in a row.

Honourable mentions to start. These are my other half's favourites. If she were judging there would have been the winners which only goes to show....
Hms to
terse for Fern Gate. She likes the swirls and textures.
Starzee for Basement door.
And so to the winners:
In third with Wet Raspberries is JillyG. I think it looks better in B&W than colour myself. Strong contrasts and the reflections add another level.
In second is Baker Hotel in Mineral Wells, Texas by YellowRose (oh I just got the reference in the name)
I like the imperfections in the picture too, it adds movement and energy. Strong lines and contrasts. Nice.
And our winner this week for Sculpture at the Accademia in Florence is Lynne.Peterson
Nice angle, excellent lighting. The sculpture itself is aesthetically pleasing, the black angles on the wall and the beams of light from above add to the whole composition. Good work.
Well done all

A great intro to a Mobi challenge for YellowRose Mary coming in a well-deserved second. And super congrats to Lynne.Peterson with that fabulous statue. Whilst you might not have been responsible for the lighting Lynne, you caught the statue with that super light on it just right. Well done. And well done indeed to everyone. Thank you once again for making the Black and White Challenge what it is. 
I will now stagger down to the Gallery and strategically place Lynne’s Sculpture at the Accademia in Florence amongst the great and the good of black and white.
I’m not sure who to thank for the HM, you or your other half, so thanks to both. Nice work everyone! I can only agree with the others on the super lighting in Lynne’s image.

A great job to you as well JillyG! I love how the dew drops just pop out in your picture. Personally, I think your photo was better than mine lol.
terse, Starzeel, and sinnerjohn, way to go! I loved all your photos!
Really?! Wow thank you so much!! I honestly didn’t think I’d get as good a placement as second, considering there were so many photos that were better, plus the fact that I didn’t have the best control over my phone when I took that shot. My little two year old was swinging from my arms lol.
Again, fantastic job everybody!!! And thank you so much!!!
