A TESTAMONIAL TO BLUE-GREY. FROM A FELLOW WONDERER
I wonder at your camera, especially when you capture those exquisite close ups, but also that even the long shots of the wildlife I've seen have detail that most cameras can't give.
That may be your talent as a taker of pictures - but I find long shots with the still shutter of my puny vidcam (it fits in my pocket) affords only punctuation to mark the excitement of what I saw.
I don't mind. My messy memory is a superlative camera ready for life's duration to transform images into words and ideas.
Nonetheless your art with the lens is superlative especially when accompanied by your thoughts and the option of sublime music.
Thank you Black Rabbit. You are Hardy's subject:

"If, when hearing that I have been stilled at last, they stand. at the door,Watching the full-starred heavens that winter sees,Will this thought rise on those who will meet my face no more,'He was one who had an eye for such mysteries'?"

Doog,
these pictures are amazing! I think it's the same wood that I used to pass on my trip from High Wyc to Reading in a minibus during Tesco Loudwater training days (before Loudwater opened). I remember that everyone used to lookd out of the window in awe at the bluebells.. Could it possibly be the same wood?
Yes! It almost certainly is. It's on the "scenic route" from Wycombe to Reading (ie not via the A4 from Maidenhead), on the RHS of the road, between Marlow and Henley, just past the turning from Hambleden. There might be more Bluebell Woods, visible from that road, but I think this is the most stunning...
