captionPIC BY GARY JONES/MERCURY PRESS (PICTURED: THE KINGFISHER EMERGES FROM THE BODY OF WATER VICTORIOUS WITH A FISH IN ITS MOUTH AT A LAKE IN DUMFRIES AND GALLOWAY IN SOUTH WEST SCOTLAND) A shopping centre manager who spent four years and clocked up 10,000 miles trying to capture his dream kingfisher picture finally nailed the perfect snap - with almost his 50,000th effort.Bird fan Gary Jones embarked on dozens of 400-mile round trips from Merseyside to Scotland trying to catch a kingfisher at the precise moment its beak hit the water.And the dad-of-one was rewarded last month when he landed this flawless photograph as the bird dived into a lake in search of fish.With its wings spread out, the kingfishers beak hadnt even caused a ripple in the water before dad-of-one Gary managed to capture the winning shot.SEE MERCURY COPY
