Pretty little puzzle

i love this Puzzle. When the obvious Pawn moves didn't work for a first move I tried Castling
and that didn't work. and a Knight move didn't work I was left with the Queen and it worked
perfectly, Very Nice puzzle. IMHO

Back and forth Queen

It was neat to see the King's own pawns cut off his escape route!

Easy puzzle once you find the first move

Everyone has made accurate comments. I found it difficult at first as did eugen1943, but after ruling out everything else, including a queen sacrifice (lol), I came across the opening move and everything fell into place. It was indeed a good puzzle, as many had commented.
