If you go down to the woods today

You'll see lots of blue bells.
Taken in the evening, about an hour before sunset.

i really like that second shot. the field of blue behind the logs is really beautiful.

More like "sea (or lake... puddle?) of blue bells".

Vey beautiful.

wowza thats beautiful

gorgeous shots Ken - especially #2. I love the composition you chose for this.

Those are the most prolific bluebells Really like the layout of the second...Reminds me of a favorite:..
A Prayer in Spring by Robert Frost

Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.

Oh, give us pleasure in the orcahrd white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.

And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.

For this is love and nothing else is love,
To which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends he will,
But which it only needs that we fulfill.

Robert Lee Frost

Thanks for the replies and encouragement, I find composition does not come very natural to me. But it's a nice suprise when I get back to my PC and find a few keepers.

PS sorry forgot to say, those shots were taken in stowe woods in Buckinghamshire, UK.

Best blanket of bluebells I have ever seen, the bluebells stand out well in these shots.

Those are very beautiful! Reminds me of our Bluebonnets here in Texas that bloom in the spring!

Think that should be your first entry to camera club competition ken!! Go for it!
