this is a real winner .. so atmospheric .. i love the way the foreground plants look like they're blowing in the wind and the one's in the background are standing straight .. apt song to go with this beautiful blurry image .. :)

omg this is so perfect .. the b&w is excellent, great contrast and clarity .. that little bird so gorgeous with the raindrops .. love it .. :)
in fact this is very similar in some ways to a photo i took a few months ago ... different setting ..
i just went to have a look at mine to see the similarities and its more that its just the same sort'v bird .. but they're both b&w .. i'll stick it in here so you know wot i'm going on about ..

i wonder if there's a country in the world that doesnt have sparrows ?? ..

the lighting is so beautiful .. it looks like a fairyland ... and it works so well in b&w .. often bush seems to lose its impact in b&w if the contrast isnt there, but this is perfect ..:)

hey tashy .. came to see wot you've been doing lately and started out with your last challenge .. once again the voters seem to be totally oblivious to the charms of this photograph .. when i look at this image i feel like she's looking right at me .. its like there's a real connection .. i dont agree with all the comments you had about needing more sharpening .. i think they're only judging by dpc standards .. in the real world this would rank up there as something very special .. i think its excellent .. very real & very dramatic in its way ... hope you're travelling well .. :):)x

it appears that bailey's morphed into a sheep !!.. it happens around here A LOT !!! ... excellent b&w .. it looks like you did a cross process with your b&w ... ?? ... wotever you've done i love the way its so contrasty .. that sheep looks like he's talking to you .. of course i know, coz i get the odd sheep photo myself, that he's just chewing .. in fact they never stop chewing .. in low light it can be a difficult thing to photograph them without motion blur in that area !!!!!!! :)
