The blur was created on purpose. Your comments are welcome.

I like the idea and that the bird on the perch looks at the blurred swallow. The light looks a bit harsh and I might remove the spot/plants in the lower right.

I have to agree with Axel on this one. In softer light and with the perched bird a bit sharper, I think this would be a winning image.

Cheers,

Thanks for your comments Axel and Greg. You're right about the harsh light.
