Description Image

After a frustrating couple of weeks looking for a decent woodland with a carpet of bluebells I finally stumbled across a vast collection of blue and green foliage, I spent over 3 hours scouting out what it had to offer. This is one of the first shots I took, a series of 5 horizontal images stitched together. Unfortunately much of the bluebells have been trampled on so finding a composition that wasn't ruined by the damage proved difficult. However there are still shots to be had and I will return at the weekend.

Wow this is great!

I have pictures very similar to this, at the college I attended we had large blooms of Camas every summer so the woodland areas would just be covered with violet flowers.

Check them out and let me know what you think

Where did you take this? I think this picture is well worth all the effort you put into it!

personally I don't feel theres anything special about micheldever. Its a nice spot but its too busy and all the muppet wanna be photographers trample the damn things chronically with no regard for their protection status etc.

It's the same with all popular spots, living in Cornwall it relates to almost every possible location...
