Bishop-Queen-2pawn-combination-checkmate

Pictured above is a Bishop-Queen-2 pawns combination checkmate I used to capture the White King in winning a correspondence chess game this morning. As you can see, my Bishop on the b6 square delivers the mating move. He is protected by my Queen, who also covers 2 of the King's possible flight squares. My pawns on b7 and c6 cover the other possible flight squares.
