What would you do in order to make black win?

I have thought of several moves but none of them would have brought me(black) victory. Does anybody have a clue?

i have flipped the board. it means that white can make queen in one move.

something like this, that is if i've got the board the board the right way round.

 

I presume a1 is bottom left and not top right

1...Rh6 would be met by 2.Rxd5+, after which both pawns would come off and it would probably be a draw. Best is probably Bb7 or Ba8, after which you can be a piece up with 2..Rxc4 Rd5+ 3.Kf6 Ra5 etc...

sorry for not mentioning, but a1 is top right...

Yes probably Ba8 would be the best. Then black can try cornering the white king. But it will be hard, considering the pieces left.

why would it be a draw if both pawns come off?  That is definitely won for black, because K + R vs K is an elementary win.

How is it K vs K + R ?

It was in reply to chesspatzer.  White can't take black's pawn without losing his rook in the process.  If the board is upside down, then I think it's a draw.
