A composite of some Spring woodland flora taken in Crowgutter Woods, Staffordshire Moorlands.
Nikon Z50. 100mm Laowa. F2.8 ISO100 and various shutter speeds to match the light conditions.
From the top left Bugleherb, Wild Garlic, Forget Me Not, Lesser Stitchwort, Dandelion, Red Campion, Bluebell, Archangel and a good old Buttercup.
Early Spring sunrise at Anderby Creek in Lincolnshire. The temperature was -2 and the sand under my feet was frozen solid. I could not feel my fingers but the light made it all worth it.
A spring peeper in the warm late afternoon light at Mill Pond. Another new one for the MP species book found by my son Adam. These little guys can really put up a racket on the pond as evening falls, but I have always found them to be difficult to locate. This one could sit on a nickel with room to spare.
It is always a miracle how quickly the nature changes every spring to to delicate spring greenness. From today's walk along the shore path.

It's a new cleansing...mother nature is in charge and early spring is a wash.

I had to stop taking photos a few weeks ago. I wouldn't usually post health stuff but I'm afraid I've had a hemmorhage on the optic nerve on the retina in my right eye and a 'posterior vitreous detachment'. I won't go on but I can see thousands of tiny dots, oil-like streaks and flashing lights in the eye and was told it may be months before things improve, even then not fully.
The consultant said go out and take photos as best you can. It's been a sobering time, a time to reflect on what really matters in life. I've been to the local gardens a few times and taken some shots just using auto focus. I never thought I'd be so grateful just to sit on a bench and look at the beautiful colour all around...the things we take for granted.
Still feeling a bit low but determined not to stay home feeling sorry for myself. I can't spend much time on a screen right now so please excuse me if I don't comment at the moment.
