This was a short moment of sunshine during my walk in a forest near home earlier this week. If you look along the path you can see that the fog was already about to roll in again. The forest is mainly a deciduous forest and looks great in spring and autumn but rather boring in winter unless we have snow or, like in this case, frost.
I have to share this story. Ron (my fiance) was on a photo walk with me. I looked over my shoulder at this path and said that I really liked the look of it, but I wished someone was walking on it. Ron said it would be great if a deer was walking on it. Two seconds later four deer appeared on the path!! It was so shocking and exciting that I panicked a little, so the shots didn't come out as good as I would have hoped, but it so such a wonderful moment.
Still desperately on the hunt for a good crop of Bluebells this year, I decided to do some research. Very quickly I found the words, Kinclaven Bluebell Woods, Perthshire, Scotland. This was therefore a no brainer. Veronica, Fara and I got in the car and drove the relatively short distance to this total gem of a location. This year is considered, poor, for Bluebells. Just imagine what this place must look like in a good season! I shall have to return in future years and capture them in full bloom...

It has been interesting during the past week as we have gone different places at different elevations in the Seattle area, how much the changes in autumn color in the trees varies. This path in Discovery Park near the waters of Puget Sound has yet to gain full autumn dress.
Bluebells in The Lady’s Walk Woodlands, Montacute, Somerset. This is at the highest point of the woods, where the path runs alongside a field on the left of this picture, and the land drops steeply down a tree covered slope on the right.
