	I've posted comments through Oktoberfest so I've no more to add here. As always, Dyxum Challenges are a great impetus to get out and about with cameras and lenses of particular combinations, and the results from around the world are a pleasure to see. This year made more challenging by the limitations imposed by Covid-19 lock-downs and other constraints. gregja 3 pts: day 22 gregja 1 pt: day 31 comment: Jozioau 3 pts: day 18 Jozioau 1 pt: day 30 comment: Snegren 3 pts: day 15 Snegren 1 pt: day 12 comment: pegelli 3 pts: day 20 pegelli 1 pt: day 21 comment: onsplekkie 3 pts: day 23 onsplekkie 1 pt: day 6 comment: bigsi 3 pts: day 12 bigsi 1 pt: day 7 comment: Phil Wood 3 pts: day 27 Phil Wood 1 pt: day 1 comment: alpha_in_exile 3 pts: day 14 alpha_in_exile 1 pt: day 27 comment: Fred_S 3 pts: day 27 Fred_S 1 pt: day 25 comment: LAbernethy 3 pts: day 10 LAbernethy 1 pt: day 6 comment: ktrucke 3 pts: day 25 ktrucke 1 pt: day 5 comment: AsD 3 pts: day 22 AsD 1 pt: day 1 comment: MiPr 3 pts: day 19 MiPr 1 pt: day 10 comment:

	Had been keeping an eye on the thumbnails with a view to commenting and had chosen one per week for each contributor.

	gregja 3 pts:28 gregja 1 pt:19 comment: you have very strong set this month. your style is very consistent. Colour&contrast are top notch in most pis. 28 takes me with you on your flight, nice! Jozioau 3 pts:1 Jozioau 1 pt:11 comment: great mixture of 'daily life' sceanes. your street pics with people tell a story, so they have my vote! Snegren 3 pts:20 Snegren 1 pt:5 comment: of all the swirleys this month I think you used it best on #20. The subject just pops out! pegelli 3 pts:28 pegelli 1 pt:7 comment: high quality sets. a trained eye for daily reflections on life! #28 is just perfect for composition&colour onsplekkie 3 pts:4 onsplekkie 1 pt:15 comment: Although happy with my choice of challange, tele lens has not been 'my thing' for daily snaps. To outcome I find so so, but #4 is pick for composition and sharpness VS bokeh bigsi 3 pts:7 bigsi 1 pt:11 comment: your Wide-angle work is great. A trained eye for just the right amount of foreground/background balance. #7 I am a sucker for reflections in rain puddles Phil Wood 3 pts:5 Phil Wood 1 pt:6 comment: strong set. love the commitment to crop! 5+6 tell a story, with 5 easy the winner to me! alpha_in_exile 3 pts:14 alpha_in_exile 1 pt:12 comment: #14 is brilliant!

So much 3D ktrucke 3 pts:2 ktrucke 1 pt:24 comment: difficult to chose the best in a strong set. #2 takes it for its simplicity & striking colours AsD 3 pts:31 AsD 1 pt:21 comment:great work #31 does it for me for its strak contrast and lively colours MiPr 3 pts:8 MiPr 1 pt:24 comment: your B&W are somewhat 'transparant', beautiful! #8 takes the win for me for it composition
