    Skylark (no Volvo required)

    I finally managed to get a shot of a Skylark at Dingle Marshes this evening.

    No Volvo was required in the making of this shot although I was on my knees at one point

                It's not the getting down on your knees that matters... it's the getting up again
                Good nob; nice capture, nice light, nice bokeh, nice pose...
