Thank you David, and indeed your right, sometimes the simple abstract approach does not get swamped by adjectives and conveys a lot more, cheers David

Heya Sam, thank you so much, I purposely brought the cosmos into play, to try emphasise the immense magnitude of our sun burning away the night sky, cheers David

Thank you so much Paulette, perhaps an abstract approach I take to describe morning, I’m delighted people see the bigger contrast in my little monoku, cheers David

Thank you Beata, I was pleasantly surprised with the win, so many ways to describe morning, so I simply went for the overall, perhaps abstract picture, cheers David

Thank you John, I consciously went for the big picture over colourful imagery, the contrasting effect of our powerful sun cancelling out the visible universe seems to have worked, I’m delighted with the win, cheers David
