                  1. Jenny "Eye'm Watching you". A smashing photo that makes me smile when I look at it.

                  2. Scrungee "Thistles, beautiful to Finches (but not to gardeners)". A wonderful composition of one of my favourite birds.

                  3. Prkns. "Eyes of Daisy" Can't resist this shot as I love cats and wow isn't she beautiful!

                  So difficult to choose a top 3 but good luck everyone!

                    Such a lovely collection this month, many which touched my hearstrings but these I loved best
                    1) Beckie "Eye trust you"- such a beautiful little fledgeling" looking so relaxed and trusting.

                    2) Scrungee "Thistled, beautiful to Finches". What a lovely balanced composition with very pleasing colours. Frameworthy...:thumbsup:.

                    3) Prks "Eyes of Daisy". Very beautiful eyes indeed and a graceful gait...

                    Such a hard decision with so many great photo's. Keeping the theme in mind and then photo quality, I chose......

                    1st........NCFCrazy........Night Night!.......A lovely shot with such good clarity of the subject.

                    2nd.......Scrungee........Hello Gorgeous!........A wonderful interpretation of the competition theme and unusual subject.

                    3rd........Marley Farley........Fungi Foray........Again, an unusual subject and good focusing and depth on the fungi markings.
