three thumbs = my top pick & hang it on my wall anytime.
OK, so after half a dozen short-then-shorter lists this is my top pick. Last man standing. Why?

First thing is, it's beautiful. Really very beautiful; shapes, tones, light and all the aesthetics are visually pleasing. The muted colours are lovely. And the composition is inspired. This is a view that most of us have seen many times, and yet I've never seen it captured as beautifully as this. Those were my first thoughts.

My second thoughts were that this is three frames from a film (I speak figuratively of course). A man stands watching, almost from the wings, as a strange cinema plays past him. He can enter the movie; he can stay where he is and watch the movie; or he can leave the theatre and the movie will still play to an empty house.

I didn't dare have any third thoughts.

Thank you.
