Slindon Woods Bluebell Path

A little different from the usual. Spring has definitely sprung when the local woods start filling with Bluebells. For locals these are not the usual part of Slindon Woods entered from Dukes Road but further east and due south of Slindon Village in the woodland surrounding Park Lane Car Park, known as Butchers Copse. Many Bluebell pictures are either eye level views of the woods or close ups. Seeing this path I decided to go for a woodland view at Bluebell level. This shot was taken at 6.40pm about 90 minutes before sunset for better light.

The picture was taken on a mini tripod with a Sony A550 with a Sigma 28-80 zoom at 28mm I used the A550 for its folding screen to make it easier to get a low down image.

A single image was taken and first processed in RAW. I then used Topaz DeNoise followed by Topaz Clarity to recover detail.
