Many congratulations to Coupekid on winning this Winged Challengs. Well done also to Pops and Pol.

Thanks for running the Challenge Changeling, you certainly made us think - so much so, I didn't manage to find an entry.

I look forward to the next challenge Coupekid.

Wow!

I am bowled over to win this one, there were so many superb entries.

I thoroughly enjoyed looking through the entries, and I thank you very much Charles for choosing my photo, and for running a great competition!

I will get my thinking cap on for the next salon.
