virtuoso

Richmond

wetlands support many insects, and so prove reliable hunting grounds for insect eaters...top guns in the aerial squadron are swallows, virtuoso flyers and very effective hunters

I think most of us have a fondness or at least an appreciation of the swallows!

Impressive detail and bokeh. V.

His is really lovely!
This has such a nice feeling with background and long shadow.
Awesome!

Really well composed this photo! I also like the role of the long shadow, which seems to emphasize the presence of the bird.

This is a super shot David, beautiful composition of this hungry little guy

Wonderful capture! V!

Lovely when they actually sit still for a moment!

Beautiful capture at rest. A more challenging target as it zooms around.

A lovely shot of this swallow, wonderful detail and color.

A beautiful little bird. Nice DOF and detail. They often seem impossible to photograph with how fast they are. V

Right-on David. A good image of this super fast "fly-catcher".
Gill Kopy31-Jul-2021 20:33
Great shot - looks like a well fed swallow :) I miss the swallows - haven't seen any around here :( V

A superb capture showing the beautiful colors impossible to see when they are flying ! V.

Beautiful catch. Swallows are among my favourite birds.
Allan Jay31-Jul-2021 19:07
Wonderful light and detail on this
capture, David!

Very nice detail and catch light. Like the shadow and background.

lovely capture.

I've never been able to catch one sitting still. Beautiful job with this catch. They are virtuoso flyers! Whenever I take the dogs to the park they are diving and swooping all over the place. Very cool to watch.

Great capture of this colorful swallow and its long shadow. Lovely bokeh as well.
