Your text/photograph combination reached new heights for me with the bench on Vallensb?k Strand. It wasn't the strongest shot in this weeks offering but the addition of one and a half lines of text catapulted it onto a new level. You have triggered emotion in me on many occasions before with your observations but I found this one particularly moving. Makes me ashamed that I don't comment more on such fine work. --Graham
