White to move. Can you find any mating tactic for White?
1.f6! and wins. Greetings from Toronto.
P.S.: After 1.f6! Bf8 white has 2.Qh6! with the idea gh6 3.Rg8++
He posted before me, but that was a pretty easy one.

Or
1 f6! g6! (the only try to avoid mate)
2 Qh6 Bf8
3 hxg6! fxg6
4 Qxg6 with either Qg8+ and h7xg8=Q++ if the bishop doesn’t move, or Qg7+ and f6xQ++ if the bishop moves.
