Mountain Dew
This is a massive departure from my usual style of photography but when I returned from the moors this week my wife said she preferred this shot to any of my bird photographs. There was a covering of snow when I arrived on the Peak District moors, and there were frozen water droplets on some of the vegetation. But as the sun rose and touched the tops of these Soft Rushes (Juncus effusus) the ice melted and created a sparkly effect. It was a fleeting moment as the sun soon rose and illuminated the dark background losing all the contrast on that bubbly bokeh.
