This is getting like the eurovision ;)

Reasons for votes.....

10) Love the colours, the symmetry and the way the suspension cables draw your eye into the coloured cloud in the centre.

13) Because you're a bloody good photographer!!! Another image where something relatively simple (in theory) turns into a cracking moment in time photo.

29) I love nature photos, particularly birds. I know how hard they are to photograph and how quick they move. Captures a wonderful moment of the swallow taking flight.

Well done everyone else. Good to see so many people giving it a go ;)

Cheers

Steve
