Bluebells by Night

I was given a Get Pushed challenge last week by Wendy @wenbow to try light painting and I wanted badly to try and capture the bluebells by torchlight. Tonight Catherine @redandwhite and I set out for Tilmanstone woods near Sandwich and waited for dark to fall. It was somewhat spooky in amongst the trees and if it wasn't for Catherine's excellent sense of direction, I could still be wandering around there trying to find my way out.

@wenbow Too late for Get Pushed Wendy, but here are the bluebells:)

[Suzanne]

Haha, only you could manage to get lost. Just think of the lovely sunrise shot you would have got though :)

[FBailey]

@suzanne234 Oh no, no more sunrises for a while, I haven't recovered from yesterday's bout of insomnia!!

The rich lighting and tones are wonderful.

[Wendy Bowden]

so wonderful, it's magic how light is created, it always fascinates me

[Richard Brown]

Nice effect you just need some fairies dancing in the light :)

[Inga Johansson]

A bit spooky and I'm glad you had good company and was able to get there and back again.

[Marnie]

Very pretty with that light. Glad to hear you had company in there though.

Brave of you both, but well worth it. If it ever stops raining I'll visit our Bluebell Wood.

Oh well done. You were brave to venture out in the end - and wise to go in company. Despite my week of studying bluebell photography, I wont be doing this! Love the strong colour in the bluebells that you have brought out.

Nice to see a very different take on bluebells. Glad you found your way home.

[Pyrrhula]

Beautiful night shot .

[Kathy]

Spotlighted!

[David]

There is a touch of magic about this. Good use of the torch. Glad you managed to get out... bluebells are notorious for dazzling with their beauty that we lose our sense of direction! :-) Fav

[Hazel]

A great capture of the bluer than blue bluebells - well done!

[Joanna kate]

This is magic, fav

[Margaret Brown]

Very nicely done, so pretty

[tony gig]

Amazing nature shot...Fav

[Sue]

This is so good. Glad you went with someone else though - to hold the torch and to guide you out
