Thanks everyone for playing !
I reckon we had 23 clues from 10 setters this week.

This race got off to a blistering start and the first 2 runners from chrise #2 (improved at #18) and tyke51 #3 were way out in front for most of the race, despite nice touches from dorrien #8 nemo #19 and peterm #22 the only clue to challenge the front runners was fiery's inspired 12/13.

In the end I plumped for the superb misdirection of chrise #18


Matt or gloss? It's a close call (5,6)


The prize is some some nicely finished film photography

Once again thanks to you all and see you all soon

Marty

Gosh! Thanks, BBM2, and for the clip. I wonder how those weird butterflies could have evolved. It looks like sexual selection, but are butterflies susceptible to attractiveness of mates?

I liked yours too, FJ!

Worthy winner Chrise in an excellent competition!
Thanks for hosting BBM2 and for the clip - nature never ceases to amaze.
Am posting Peer Review shortly as I won`t have time in the morning (family crisis - 90 year old mum in hospital having broken hip in a fall - again!)
