    I was wondering around RSPB Ham Wall heard a noise just above my head and saw these two long tail tit fledgling flitting amongst the branches begging their parents for food. They then settled on the branch closest to me and sat relaxing allowing me to take some photos. They were as interested in watching me as I was in photographing them!

    I was in a hide on the edge of a field waiting to get a few pics of some deer when I spotted this little fellow picking up twigs and flying them back to it's nest in a hedgerow. I got a few shots but this was my favourite.

    Title or Location: Siverstone F1
    Taken at Silverstone F1 on Qualification day. F11 1/80 at 135mmTook numerous photo's on the day with a very low hit rate! The cars are doing doing around 150mph at the position we were in, took a while to get the panning right and a bit more experimentation to get at a low enough shutter speed to blur the background and the chain link fence.Will 100 be going back next year and up in a grandstand!

    Title or Location: Toronto ON Canada
    I love exploring Toronto, where I've been living for a while now, with a camera, or more often just with a mobile phone. And looking for unusual angles. This place in the center of downtown on King Street always looks different depending on the weather, time of day, wind... This time I was shooting late in the evening and waiting for the flag to straighten out.Shot on a Samsung s21 mobile phone, edited in an editor Snapseed/

    This shot was taken along with 3000 others images on my first ever photo shoot during Covid. I hired a model I had seen and had come to do pool shots with another Photographer and he suggested I hire her and conceptualize the shoot. I?m not a professional and had no props but I bought some fabric and I used my leaf blower to make that effect. I periodically go back to those pictures and rework them with my iPhone apps for varying effects. You can see more of my work on Instagram. That day creat

    Thank you for considering my photo for Photo of the Week! I have a number of bottle brush trees in my back yard, and birds love the blossoms when they bloom in the Spring. I usually see numerous hummingbirds and sparrows, but I saw this gorgeous bird one afternoon resting in the branches. I was able to get a couple of shots off before it flew away.
