c6. White moves up the board
Hmm, I'll go away and think about this one. It'll probably be solved by the time I work it out, but hey...
That took a while. Nice one.

Looks right to me. Beautiful problem, although quite easy once you realise that the c6 pawn must have a point to its existence..
Right!
This is one of my own compositions, I've posted it in a few groups before, but there was a time in these forums where people pointed out all the time that White has many ways to win easily, why search for a hard mate in 3?
Lately, there seems to be greater tolerance for positions with ovewhelming material advantage, so I'll try again.
I was actually trying to work on a totally different idea, when I stumbled upon this:
White to play and mate in 3.
