A shot from last weekend, I've got quite a thing for Bluebell woods and I am lucky to have some great sites very near my home, anyway this is 2015's effort, cheers.

I see you've been lurking in the woods again Steve! I love the depth you got here looking through the dark tree trunks to the spring green foliage in the distance and of course, the carpet of bluebells. The icing on the cake is the dappled light and that sunbeam casting its spotlight on the solitary light green plant in the sea of blue.

A beautiful view of classic English spring woodland. What a treat!

I too am drawn to the light beam and the highlights on the bluebells.

what a stunning and clever shot Steve. Great light, and the splash on the lone bracken which is perfectly placed, tops it for me. Well done on the EP too Steve
Make your life spectacular!

Great capture, and the beam really accentuates the mood. I love blue bell season.... even from this side of the pond.
