When my wife comments about the smell in a bluebell wood, I make a show of looking at the soles of my shoes and say 'it's not me!'.

I've actually spotted one singular bluebell in someone's garden near me - the rest of the garden looks fairly wild as well tbh.

Stunning Stovie - your top one has it so far - followed by "ramsoms and bluebells"

One year I'll get the perfect shot!

That top one is rather good Stovie.
Have to go back to my spot tomorrow to see if they have opened out a bit more.

Thanks BR... coming from such a good photographer as yourself that's great praise for a novice like me

I got the chance to visit my local haunt this afternoon, took a few pics but they don't do it justice:

Just the luck of the light. Slightly under-exposing helps bring out the intensity of the colour though.

I don't doubt for one minute you'll get the perfect shot...

Couple of shots from Sunday.

Love the middle one Kepis - something about the vibrancy of the colour and the contrast with the (beech?) leaves

I've really enjoyed this thread - something very pleasant about all the contributors sharing simple enjoyment of one aspect of nature.


Congratulations addo! Maybe you should pick another theme and we can try again in May
