Same spot a week later

Bluebells plus a willow we’re trying to grow.

Self portrait, rather pleased!

@.duncan

Thats cool.

and the night shot one 🙂

All great keep them coming. Sadly my bluebells will be first to go 🙁

I’m really quite puzzled by this. ❓

So far, Hampshire bluebells have looked noticeably less perfect than previous years. Rather scrawny and tired looking. 🙁 As I’ve mentioned before, it could be due to the chilly night-time temperatures and perhaps the lack of rain has not helped.

Anyway, here’s a pic from yesterday:

@cg

They look OK. Perhaps kneel down when you take the pic 🙂

Still going strong in Warwickshire

As a slight aside, this will be part of my commute in a couple of weeks when I start my new job – ALOT closer to home!
Mr Redthunder could you reel out your Lost and Found picture?

.duncan – that’s a pretty cool riding shirt there. 🙂

redthunder – ahem, I was crawling around I’ll have you know. 😀

Pickers – your bike matches!

@cg OK 🙂

in my garden 🙂

Thanks Redthunder, perfectly sums up the change in my commute from the joys of the M42/M5 to quiet local lanes and trails. Can’t wait now.

@redthunder thanks, was a great day for it 🙂

original here clicky

mutley – whereabouts in the Chilterns was that please? Are there many good displays to be enjoyed?

Well, today I visited a different valley in Hampshire with some rather lovely little woods. Displays were good but, again, bluebells were slightly withered looking and definitely not as vivid as they could be.

Wentwood’s looking good at the mo’ and smelling even better 😛

Stanmer Park, Brighton. Earlier today. Slightly mental lens flare fun.

A few more from N Ireland today. Which on closer inspection weren’t Blue Bells but look nice anyway….

A bluebell near Durham yesterday.

And a few other plants sneaked into my camera too….

Sorry for the cheating…. 😳

Took this pic a couple of hours ago, near Horsham West Sussex: –

i think it’s the dry weather that’s affecting the colour

Ooooh, much prettiness. I’ve enjoyed looking at these pics. 8)

I think in the South we’re still suffering from lack of hydration although some in the Chilterns yesterday looked healthy. Many did not though. The vividness is missing this year. 🙁

I am however rather concerned about the places redthunder inhabits. A graveyard? A shooting range? Hmmm

@cg

It’s a field archery course… the new expensive hobby.

and Graveyard… yes it’s a graveyard. I was waiting for somebody 😉 I’m just digging a hole for myself arnt I…

IGMC

Real this tome,,, no bow this time, only the camera.

RedThunder > where do you shoot? (I’m a lapsed field archer also, used to shoot HT, none of this posh Freestyle malarky… )
