    Many thanks to all who entered and congrats to the hms. I took this photo of the swallow perched in a tree close to the sheds they visit every year to nest in. I processed the basics in Lightroom and finished with Affinity photo where I used the selection brush on the swallow and branch with the flower bud. The tails of the swallow were quiet difficult to select. The background was obtained using a gaussian blur adjustment on the rest of the photo. Again another lock down photo.
    Settings as follows; 1/640 f8 ISO 500. 200 mm equivalent to 300 mm on aps c camera.
    Once again many thanks to Myksyk.
