So here are the results of the RTF Black and White round. Fortuitously it came at the end of the financial year as using only black and white pixels (apart from a couple of miscreants images) allowed us to save on our budget to get us through the next competition - Landscapes without Buildings - in full, glorious RGB!
And who amongst our contestants has risen to the heights of the top three places?
Our two third-place winners (!) are Jim - @Kings - with his black and white in colour, entered on his behalf by ChallCom 
and Richard - @Kirky of Reading Town, presented as a stitched and HDR’ed pano. Well done both of you …
In second place with a nicely lit night shot of a rather fine Tudor House in Wokingham is Guy - @speedracer66
but just ahead of Guy to claim a well-deserved first place is John - @Drumsagard with a sharp and contrasty image of his local river, Glasgow’s Clyde:
Thank you all who entered, even @macspite , and we hope to see you all - and more - entering Landscapes without Buildings, the next round of RTF
