Behold the Bountiful and Bounteously Ebullient Bluebells


Hampshire, England

Deer roam through bluebells in Micheldever Wood as the blast of Arctic weather that has brought snow to northern Scotland continues to move south

Ed:  would you say this is deliberately pandering to the Mystery Lady?

Yep, no question about it.  I saw all those bluebells and thought, yep, Mystery Lady needs to see these.


The photographic exercise is in depth of focus since there isn't much of it in this one but it's possible to adjust that so almost everything is in focus.  Therefore, the photographer must have been deliberately relying on the blur to emphasize the deer.  Yep, that sounds plausible.

Does that work for you.  Would you rather see zillions of bluebells so sharp you could try to count them or is it better they work like some kind of surreal cosmic cloud.

There's no answer but, as we delight in reminding, questions which don't have answers are the only ones which are really entertaining anyway.
