Bluebells

My bluebells in the garden are at last a show !I have the original blue variety ,also the white & some mauve colour , I went out this morning to photo these -the wind is still amazingly cold and although some sunshine at the moment the skies are black - so I assume another downpour !!
Drear wee bells - a lovely colour - almost lavender here!

@maggiemae thanks Maggiemae, I wasn't quite sure of what to call the colour - perhaps lavenver is more correct!!

They are lovely, Beryl, and look great in this colour variation. I love the treatment you have given the image too and the way you have picked up the lavender colour on the frame. Great shot and wonderful processing!

@genesis_one Thank you Corrie
@eniaral Thanks Laraine -the ones in the background are white Bluebells --They look smaller but I suppose this is due to the fact I used macro focused on the purple ones in the fore ground !!Thanks for your kind comments
