I predict that the 10-20 will see a lot of use in the woods it looks like you've more out that we do at the moment

Here's a couple from me both taken in Duncliffe Woods near Shaftesbury, Dorset:

Lovely light but a bit over saturated in hindsight :|

And some very flat light

Does anyone know how the bluebells are at Micheldever Wood, I really want to go there to get some shots after the pics I have seen of it . So if anybody could let me know how they are now there or in the past if they were any good up until about May 10th that would be awesome

Here are my first shots of the year. Yes, I know you've seen the first one before in my challenge thread, Matt, so I will post the backup shot I took the same day, as well.

great shots, still looking for some round here

 

[milster]

I've got a few in the front garden, might go and take a couple of pics in a bit

Are you based around New Forest? If so Micheldever wood shouldn't be too far from you, it tends to be from the pictures I have seen, best right at the end of April to early May.

If you do happen to go there at all would be lovely to see your shots and how far the bluebells have come, hoping to get there around 7th May so hoping they flower a bit late!

keeping fingers crossed for next weekend

I hope everyone get the bluebells they want, I've got a small photo of them today for my POTD but my usual spot is still very much barren of bluebells in comparison to this time last year

An opportunist shot from today

To early I'm thinking, though it may be that the recent cold snap that we had just before they were due out may have finished them off for the year, it would be a real shame if that's the case

Going to have a look up my local Bluebell wood at ringshall today but went up last week and hardly any about.:|

 

[sbowler579]

[pjmcbear]

Went out for a few hours a couple of weeks ago and took these at Etherow Country Park in Tameside.

Not the best, but I quite like them.
