How very peacefull. I don't know why but it makes me
think of an old old song Emmylou Harris did. "Gulf Coast
Highway".
"
And when she dies she says she'll catch some blackbird's wing
And she will fly away to heaven
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring "
Different flower but the image still calls this to mind. Thanks
for posting it.

it was very peaceful, it is proper Scottish wilderness around that area and the only downside was getting stuck in a ditch only to be saved by 2 cyclists. Looking at the picture it looks quite dark on my laptop... it was much brighter on my iMac

Lovely scene Davie - really amazing sight
Does look a tad dark on my Mac Pro - could do with a re-tweak perhaps to lift the brightness and maybe saturation?
Did you know the flowers were out, or was it a lucky find?

Yeah I may have to brighten it a smidge 
... A lucky find Chris, I was in the area which I go to a lot anyway but had no idea they were there, I was just going down to the river for a chill and some shots

What a find Davie - nice. And I've never seen them out of a woodland habitat before.

It was a bit weird Pete, if the water had been higher the entire field of bluebells would be an island, luckily with it being very dry I was able to walk over onto the island.

I take it that it was the car and not you personally that was stuck in the ditch (now that would have been embarrassing!!).

Thankfully this time it was the car but usually it's me
