The sun as been out YAY This morning and into this afternoon we were having showers, heavy at times, rain and hailstones. At one point the grown was white where the hailstones had settled. Anyway, about 2 hours ago the sun came out and I decided I would pop out and see if I could get some photos of the Blue Bells I saw out the other day. I didn’t have to go too far so if it decided to cloud over and rain again I didn’t have far to get back home. I took a number of shots. It was good to go out with my camera and take some photos. Hope to take more very soon. The photo is one I took this afternoon.

That's a good picture. It's sunny here too. It's been sunny all day. After a few greyish days it's nice to finally have some sunshine.

Very colorful photo! It seems as if the flowers were woken by the sun! It won´t take long before thier heads point straight to the sunshine!

No, they don't point towards the sun, Bluebells get their name because they look like a bell and hang down.

I hope so, just been so wet and windy here, and has you will know if it's windy it's hard to take good macro shots.

@kevin1877uk I don't have steady hands so it's hard for me to take good macro shots without a tripod regardless of the weather. Wind can mess with all kinds of photos though.

@Gina145 I'm the same these days, If I didn't have a tripod I would be taking many more photos just to get the one lol. Sometimes I do go out with it then regret not taking with me.

If we can just exchange the weather for a month, that will be great. Over here, it is too hot and sunny. Not the kind of weather that we like.
