Thank you for participating in the Last Week's Leftovers Challenge. Congratulations to all of you and thank you for creating a great set of images.

And, of course, special congratulations to our winners, in joint third place is S Ibrahim with a delicate glass geisha and Simba_Nala with a castle with sand fireworks, our second placed entrant is Marijana who gave us an imposing sandcastle and there is a special well done to our winner, Steppenwolfand their over-refreshed mouse.

This time we got over 100 entries and more than 100 people came back to vote - you raised us to boosted status which increased the prize fund markedly - well done!

The Daily Challenge continues. We all create some images that we think don't make the grade or are alternate versions of the picture we think will be a winner. Don't waste them!
