Fields around Seville are full of 2 things: Corn Buntings and Marian Thistle, I love the shape of both so I really wanted to get a sillouethe against the setting sun, although it proved much more difficult than expected (mainly due to shorts and 2 meter tall thistle meadow is not the best combination) but this image seems worth it after all, as I loved how the flowers looked out of focus and I managed to place the bird in the exactly right spot with no interference.

Nature photography has become a very passionate hobby of mine and whenever I get a chance I love to get outside and enjoy being outdoors. I am also the co-owner of KGM Expressions, a wedding and portrait photography business, with my wife Kim. This is how we make our living and I love that we get to do that together.
