I did an elaborate still life set-up for the 'sayings' challenge and felt like a change of pace with this one. Hopefully it won't get too many DNMC knock-downs.
This was shot in a bluebell wood about a 40 minute drive from my home. I was up at 5 a.m. to catch the early morning light. Let's hope it was worth it :-)

nice way to give natural flowers the "feeling" of arranged flowers. Very few people have been successful at going out of the box in this challenge. I think I've counted 2 so far. Good job.
