    nice composition indeed. I like the sun goes on the flowers and trunks of the trees. It creates a nice shadowy effect.

  7. Mimsha Says:

  8. saurabh Says:

  9. Su Su Says:

    You can almost smell those bluebells, spring has sprung congrats. Where is this?

  10. Susan Chester Says:

    Hi Peter this is a fantastic shot…The shadows make it all very interesting and the bright sun in the foreground has given this a superb depth of field…giving it a 3D as if you are actually walking through there yourself. On my list of jobs to do is to go to the woods to see the bluebells but more important jobs are pushing this further down my list….you have just taken me there amongst them..thankyou

    Somehow, I feel the need for red/orange hues in this image. Otherwise as Ariel put it – “Purty”

    Exceptional…the bright forground and the way you captured the shadow from the tree trunks pulls you into this photo giving it a strong depth of field.
