WRONG TITLE
I loaded this into a group called The Art of Meddling, and it was rejected. The picture is a very good example of what you get when you meddle.

STORMY WEATHER (trees)
Glad I was already in my car before the heavens opened. It went incredibly dark, but it didn't last for very long, and the sun was soon out again.

LUCY IN THE SKY
I just messed about with the photograph of a luscious, large green tree against a nice blue background with the clouds, but I decided that was boring, so this is what I did to it.

INTENTIONAL CAMERA MOVEMENT OR INTENTIONAL BLUR
I'm going to be trying this again because I rather like the outcome of this on my lavender in the garden, which has finished for the summer now, so I couldn't go and do it again.

Congratulations to this photograph! good light abd the feeding of the kids is well captured!
I was trying to catch a woodpecker last year using a 400mm. And it resulted in a claiming bird until I left his area.
