"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Nice abstracts everyone. Thanks for participating.

Ed, I like the 3-d effect in your image

Tom, great bokeh effect in your image

texkam, I like the lines and texture in your image

InPhoto, great POV and focus in your image

Lesley, l like the colors in your image

airfrogusmc, I like the shadows in your image

This is a tough one for me but I will go with Lesley's image for the win, airfrog comes in second and Ed's is third.

Thanks again everyone. It's all yours Lesley.

Thank you very much, Don! I thought Tom or Ed might take the win. Well done, everyone! I have to take the cat to the vet in a few minutes, so I will post the new challenge later this morning. BTW, the cat is fine. :-)

Congratulations, Lesley!

I love your image; such a nice composition and beautifully soft gradations from one color to another.
