Great composition - it holds my interest much more than many - albeit technically superb - butterfly shots!

Ghostly and angelic at the same time! Great comp and timing

I like v3 with the coot as well. The terrapin is almost certainly an alien, released unwanted. Hopefully it won’t be warm enough for them to breed!

…have you seen any of the duck cartoons in the Greg Larsen far side series… he would give this 10/10!

Certainly one to crow about! Several word plays all in one, perfect for a Sunday. ungrateful birds though - I rescued one from our chimney had to take the wood burner apart...all he did was viciously peck me!

she is very beautiful with excellent colourisation. I like this composition.

No handshake though Carl! Good shot too!

the colourisation works very well here - she becomes almost real, quite sexy, but still a sculpture!

Works well Carl!

Fine views! I hate to admit it but I don't think I've ever been to Leeds. Something to do with Don Revie and Brian Clough? You have inspired me to visit (and Wakefield}

Dreamy!

Good shot, peaceful, soothing composition. None of this down our way!

Greedy Guzzlers! Good shot though - they are surprisingly timid in our garden!

Excellent depth and colour (as always!) with the vestigial figures to give a link from abstract to reality, would look great as a large print (as would most of your images!)

I like the simplicity and calmness of this!

Convoluted, abstract with superb subdued colour! Are we going to see an opening series?

Instant award Graham - timeless, mysterious, draws you in.... great depth and mono . Could be 100M years ago!

There is worry, anguish and hope in the eyes on these (apart from the last version!). Beautiful set. A post made for a robin!

Great view. In a hundred years time it will be a 'why?' shot, if the format can be read. A print in a time capsule?

Thanks Oliver made me think. The five lines are like a musical score, with notes lost or to be added…

Thanks Dave, yes they do, especially if there are strawberries to be had. If you read the book (not the TV series) by Gerald Durrell 'my Family and Other Animals' you will understand. I may have said this before, but as the tortoiseshells are dome shaped, they would have lift like an aerofoil. Slight problem is they need about a 200mph wind to take off. It doesn't stop them trying, they are often running and jumping!

The depth in this is amazing!

Great, moody shot. I can see you love ferns! A perfect place for them.

great shot! Not many gardeners on the side of the snail, so he is most welcome. Glad he wiped it to remove the grain, or was that snail film? it is Saturday after all!

Fabulous shot. A fisheye that doesn't shout 'fisheye', it engages the mind and makes you explore the image!

The mouth/lips are mesmerising as well! And the P3200 grain.

First vote today Kath! You can almost smell this; excellent shadow and balance to the image. A sacrifice for cooking? Andy

Incredible depth and mystery in this one! it would make a great poster in an 'art' museum

lovely - what a pleasure to have these in your garden!

Unusual and effective! I didn’t immediately see the figure - it is a reward for looking
