Well done to everybody who entered, some great entries, any of which could have made the top 3
My personal favourite is:
1st - I have tried to photograph the very same subject but with nowhere near this level of success, I love the colour and action (assume some form of 2nd curtain sync? any technical details would be greatly appreciated)

2nd - My second favourite is this excellent wildlife shot, its great to hear the lengths you went to to capture this.
