Thank you every one for your kind comments . I really hadn't noticed that this was a nice shot at the moment until I came home and started processing the batch. Then I realised how nice the shot was. I was after all hunting for the kingfishers in the area and was frustrated as hadn't managed to get any shot of the birds so walking back along the path just decided to shoot at anything that grasped the tiniest of my attention And this one came into radar.
Glad it came out the way it did.

)) how did you guess?

Actually even the breeze was messing about and I was just hoping that I would get a small opening when it would be still so I could snap it.
Glad it came out looking this good

Amin, prepare to do another upload (i.e. locate your file, type in the details etc), important, make sure your photo is larger than 1000 x 1000 pixels and then tick the box for 'magazine competition'. Then click the upload button.
Your picture will not appear in the Gallery until the panel have decided which four will appear in the next issue. At least I think that is how it all works
