Last of the Piethorne bluebells?

Last of the Piethorne bluebells?
A walk around one of our local reservoirs, Piethorne, is always a pleasure, especially in springtime when the bluebells are out. We have actually missed the best of this years crop already as all these are now finishing. Anyway, enjoy what you see here with me and just imagine that sweet unmistakeable scent

Best full screen.

The bluebells are still glorious in the dappled shade. I wish we had them in our woods...

It's always lovely to see a bluebell wood shot Herb........and this is a beauty. I especially like the light and dappled shadows.

I've not yet found any bluebells near me (except the Spanish ones in the garden), but I have one more place to explore yet. I suspect I'll be too late though :-(

Hi David. We discovered this place only a few years ago and now we try to visit it each spring. we knew we were a bit late but fortunately the overall blue clouds of bluebells still prevailed even though they were, every one, on their last legs. You are quite right re the amount of light falling on them as the ones in the more shaded area were stronger here than the others in full sunlight.

Best Wishes. Herb

Very nice woodland shot Herb. I really enjoy walking in the woods at this time of year and carpets of bluebells and birdsong are always a highlight.

What a beautiful sight Herb. Love the dappled sunlight and I can just imagine the smell from the bluebells. I once bought a bluebell scented candle and each time it was lit it made me think of being in the woods with a carpet of bluebells.
