Regular contributor Graham Piercy sends us three excellent
images and writes:
"In the last couple of hours (Sunday morning, 22 February 2010)
we have had an amazing snowfall, the largest flakes and the slowest
fall I have ever seen. I captured this macro as they landed, look
at the brilliant large crystals."
"The Robin shot was taken in the woods near Castle Howard."
"I took this humorous starling shot in my mother's back garden
at Norton, entitled 'I wish'."
