I don't know what to say

For the past few years, I've enjoyed photographing the bluebells when they erupt in a riot of colour (well, blue and green) on the woodland floor.

I used to enjoy visiting them at Parc le Breos on the Gower Peninsula, but these days I'm unable to walk the necessary distance to reach them.  No matter, there's always a crop much closer to home and easily within walking distance for me.

So, the other evening I ventured down to the woods near me only to find a large area of bluebells flattened.  Now, I'm not sure how this happened, but I'm ruling out any sort of animal as they are in a fenced off area where only small animals could gain access.  We haven't had any heavy rain or windy days, so my suspicion rests on human interference.  This could be innocent and accidental, children playing there perhaps.  Or it could be far more sinister.  After all, it's not unknown for selfish photographers to flatten areas of bluebells after capturing them to prevent other photographers enjoying them.

I have witnessed this sort of thing before, after a group of scouts ruined large swathes of the flowers while camping at the aforementioned Parc le Breos.  Returning to my local display though and however it's happened, it's scuppered my plan to shoot them in any way, and I was left with a few solitary subjects to photograph.  

Instead of showing you my bluebell images (you'll need to watch the video linked below to see those), here is one woodland shot I'm reasonably happy with.  And not a bluebell in sight.
