Thank you. I like that analogy. I was by my local river, but definitely not under it!

After much angst & soul-searching, I'm delighted to announce the winner of this weeks #sharemondays2025
Please step forward
@geraldinecurtis.bsky.social I just kept getting drawn in to this captivating still life, beautifully captured. It was a close run thing: congratulations to all four finalists.

I've put a few comments in the alt section
Decision tomorrow! (It will be tough!)

I love this still life with its careful arrangements and the little interplay of light on the right hand background. It's a really pleasing colour palette as well.

Loving the colours and the movement in this: it makes for a very expressive portrait

Captured at the perfect moment! A really direct and striking portrait

I'm really enjoying this beautiful interplay of textures, shapes and light. It's a great colour palette too!

Swirling, black-and-white, intentional camera movement image of trees in a circular movement. Hopefully, the effect is almost abstract and painterly
