I'm lucky enough to have a my own bluebell patch right outside my door - the poor things have struggled a bit over the last few weeks, but now that we've got some warm and sunny weather they've really taken off

This was difficult to get right - the evening sun has illuminated the pollen sticking to the anthers while a gentle backlight has made the beautiful petals almost translucent; and luckily there was absolutely no wind this evening! I was able to compose this so that the plane of focus was limited to the stamen & anthers and small areas of the petals while everything else was rendered nicely OoF
