Terrific!

 

Inventive and distinct. I liked having to find 3.hxg7+, as 3.fxg7+ loses the pawn cover. This definitely meant that you had to see all the way to mate to be able to solve correctly. It would have been even better if it wasn't for the alternate mating square, but still, a fine puzzle.

 

Do you have others? Please let me know personally if you do. I have an increasingly deep respect for problem-making, and would love to see more original creations from the budding problemists on this site.

thx i don't have any more and it was a fluke i was wondering if four pawns could mate the king in the corner but the king kept going to h7 so i put a bishop there and 4 black pawns and white mated easy then i put black to move on the computer and it had mate in 7 i thought Bc2 and Bg6
