My aunt wanted a few pictures of the bluebells as she is not able to get out as much to see them. I missed the best bloom by a week or so but no worries.

Garvagh forest is a plantation forest and is made up of non native beech trees. The under canopy is fairly open resulting in better carpets of bluebells compared to native woodland which tend to be darker and have dense undergrowths. I didn't get the shot I was really after, but this is maybe one of the better ones.

RAW is very useful for shooting in woodlands.
