Amazing sequence of Queen's (and rook's, of course) moves! Interesting way how to annihilate bBf1 and replace it by black Queen (if we replace Qh3->f1 in initial position, solution is clear 1.Qa2 ~ Rxb5+ Qxb5 3.b4+ Qxb4#).

Yes Ivan, the dance of wQ on all over the board combined with the replacement of the bB by bQ looks really great!
