Fantastic shot, very well seen and taken. BG is great and the bird really stands out, great pose.

Beautiful. Love the colourful background, as opposed to the standard blue sky. The blues of the swallow really stand out. Nice action too with the mid-song pose. The white's look a little hot, but I'm sure its fine. Love it! :toast: :toast: :toast:
