THIS photograph of two swans passing through the A579 Atherleigh Way bridge is our picture of the week.
It was taken by amateur photographer David Fairhurst, of Cherry Tree Grove, Leigh.
The 36-year-old, who often snaps nature and scenery photographs in the area, said: “I just saw the two swans under the bridge, could see how the sky was reflecting off the water and had to try to get the shot.
“I am really happy with it and my fiancée has titled it The Journey.
“I would love to take more good photographs in the future to build up my portfolio and perhaps do it as a career.”
