Blue and yellow win every time )

The ominous silhouettes are a treat.

Color for me too. I ws thinking phoenix and those eyes staring out of the shadows give it a bit of a sinister feel.

Well, definitely the colour version for me. I'm a bit non-plussed tbh - a headless peacock (implied by the Chinese artwork), but the ferny thing from yesterday is there too. You win - I remain non-plussed

Wow! The wide angle view really creates a monster of that potted plant. It looks like it might reach out and get you (the viewer)

Dark, foreboding, slightly spooky. The light at the top offers some hope, but generally a rather moody piece.

Sums me up to a T at the moment.

Agree totally with your choice - remarkably different images but those fronds are so unusually shaped I reckon they're served best by your silhouetting of them.

Alien invasion, coming to a neighbourhood like yours. Very creative and effective use of the Helios.

nice bit of light play

I like the soft focus and the strong bokeh balls.
