Thank you so much, Patrik! Pierre’s photo is a very worthy winner indeed. It’s a stunning image. I’m delighted to be among your honourable mentions. Some truly gorgeous and evocative images. I’ll look out for January’s challenge and hope you’re fighting fit and migraine free long before then, Patrik.

I was hoping you'd choose Pierre's pic. It really is stunning.

And I'm so sorry about the ongoing migraine. They're the stoopidest. I know. Hope you get a break from that nonsense soon!!

It sure is stunning, such a beautiful photo!

Eh, it's okay. Headaches and migraines go away when they feel to, they're just stooopid while they're ongoing, haha!

Wow, thank you for such kind words about my work. Also that photo by Pierre is just incredible! I so appreciate your challenges, they're making me come back to photography with a different perspective. Photography for me started as it was just about capturing my artwork, then it became more important as I needed to capture the best possible portrait for my Soul Portrait client work (this is still obviously super important!), but now I'm just playing and enjoying taking photos for these challenges, simply for the joy of it.
