Bluebells, Bluebells, everywhere!

[Paul Iddon]

I went to a local beauty spot today to get pics (I hoped, managed 1) of dippers and wagtails, but there was such an abundance of bluebells it was amazing.

Here are a selection of the best images I managed at various parts of my 8 mile walk!


I used a Bas Relief filter in a layer in photoshop to give them a slightly different look. I hope you think it suits the scenery. It is a sort of "painterly" effect. This has helped the blues stand out much better than in the original processing.

The last image also has lots of wild garlic flowers at the right hand side.

Great series Paul. I am pleased to see you do not just rely on Macro as I move around too.
