Bluebells

Bluebells.  Always a good sight to see, and a good subject to for macro and closeup photography.  So when I saw them out on the Easter Saturday visit to High Wood, I swapped my MPE-65mm for my 100mm Macro Lens, and had a play at taking the bluebells.

First the arty one – a blended merge of two shots in Photoshop, one out of focus and the other in focus, in an attempt to create an Orton like effect.

Then on to more standard single shots.
