I love to see a carpet of vibrant bluebells, but this year, I only got to see a few remains in a corner

More little things in life
Oh that’s sad…not venturing out this year I have missed the bluebell woods. But these are lovely none the less 🙂
Pleased you think so, Caryl!
But you’ve captured them brilliantly! I’ve been lucky to see swathes of bluebells this year, but my camera and I have failed miserably to capture their essence.
It’s all about the light, Margaret…..let me bore you on Thursday!
Bore me? Perish th thought. And in woodland, you get what you’re given.
Well, this was the corner of a garden
Better than nothing, Sue! Do you get a flower delivery along with your groceries? 🙂 🙂
Not along with my groceries, but from time to time….
I have a lot of Spanish Bluebells in my garden apparently they are taking over. They are handsome though.
Alas, they are pushing our natives out….
I am normally pro-immigartion, but we need to say no to the Spanish bluebells!
Bit late now….
They still look beautiful. A bit of decay illustrates the life of nature. And nice to see that you picked plants today, too. And nice to see that you picked blue today, too. 🙂
Blue has signifIcance for you, Elke?
The blue flower of romantic literature, possibly, signifying the striving for the unattainable and the infinite … oh, I am getting all philosophical now. 😉
Ah, indeed…do you know Penelope Fitzgerald’s ‘The blue Flower’?
No, I don’t. But her subject Novals (Hardenberg) is THE German romanticist who is credited with creating the image of the blue flower and many years ago I spend many an hour reading up on him and reading texts by him and writing many an essay about him. 🙂 I’ll put that book on my reading list though, thanks for the tip.
Ah, interesting Hope you enjoy Fitzgerald’s book
Another one that is just like a painting. Very nice indeed!
Best wishes, Pete.
Many thanks! The lighting was just right that day
These are lovely 🙂
The light was great….
Reminder for me to go up the hill to see if our bluebells are out yet, last year they were magnificent.
Oh, do go!
I shall. Maybe tomorrow.
Good!
I’m here at last!
It’s a lovely shot, Sue. At their peak, or not, they look great here. As we were saying earlier it has hard to get a good shot of bluebells but you have done it. It’s a nice setting, too
Yes, I was probably more pleased with this one than in the past when I have largely failed with swathes of them and failed to get ‘the’ shot
