Nature Photo Competition

Had my worst result so far in the monthly competition last night, 15th out of 21.  Knew I wasn't going to win but thought it was better than other people did.  Shows what I know.  I don't think I helped myself by covering the mount and edges of the picture with glue mind you, made a real pig's ear of it. 

The standard was particularly high last night, nature photography being the strong suit of a number of the members. 

Here is the winner from Ian, a very talented chap who spends a lot of his time with his camera on Exmoor:

Second place went to a picture taken by my friend Mark in his back garden:

Back to the drawing board for me - I have so much progress to make!  But maybe one day.
