Bluebells in bokeh
There's an ancient site just outside Bettws Newydd in Monmouthshire where woodlands now grow on what was once an Iron Age hill fort. The ramparts that the original inhabitants built now make impressive undulating folds in which scores of bluebells flourish at this time of year.
Their ethereal blueness is accentuated by the ditches and makes a stunning display. I wanted to bring out that delicate, otherworldly quality by using bokeh and it's worked really well, especially when using the wider apertures to over expose, flooding the image with light.
