Great shot. Well done @sirch

 

[steveo_mcg]

Well deserved that!

 

[ChrisR]

Yes, well done Chris... as soon as seen, it looked like a winner!

 

[sirch]

Thanks all, getting the shadows in front of the paper chain was harder than I thought it would be so there were a few (!) test shots, I'm glad it was well recieved

 

[RaglanSurf]

Great shot, it really stood out for me. No pun intended, honest

 

[Andysnap]

Definitely a worthy winner and well done to everyone who entered. Looks like I may have to resort to sabotage to beat Mrs Snap ....

Do you still beat your wife?

 

[Mr Badger]

Well done everyone, and onward to the next theme!

 

[Mr Badger]

Do you still beat your wife?

Not according to the scoreboard he doesn't!

That's probably just cost me a pint to placate him, but it was worth it for a laugh, sorry Andy!

 

[FishyFish]

Well done @sirch - excellent piece of work and a nice play on the theme.
