Swallow
I just wanted to share this one with you taken last year and was highly commended in the BWPA.
I have had three short listed for this year awards, fingers crossed.

This is my personal favourite of your posted images so far.Perfect swallow,the soft pastel colours,the inclusion of an interesting sky and lovely detail throughout the image.
So all in all,not bad then. :smile:

I remember it well from Hooper's! It really is stunning. It should be on display currently at The National Trust in Treliske, Cornwall. Good luck this year!
