"Bell Wood"
by
Sarah Curgenven |
The unusually warm, wet winter we have just experienced in England has
produced vibrant displays of Bluebells.
This month 's image is a painting with digital brushes on a photo taken
by my daughter during our walk in the Hampshire Woods on Good Friday,
when we spotted the rarer white flower amongst the sea of blue.

"Walmer Castle"
by the late Stephen Barrie |
Built
during the reign of King Henry VIII, Walmer Castle is one of the most
fascinating visitor attractions in the South East. Originally designed
as part of a chain of coastal artillery defences it evolved into the
official residence of the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports.
The Duke of Wellington held the post for 23 years and enjoyed his time
spent at the castle and in recent years Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the
Queen Mother made regular visits to the castle.

"Pollinating Bee"
by Eric Hatch |
A bee heavily-laden with pollen, trying to find that one more bit
before heading back to the hive.
The real challenge with this shot was getting the bee in focus and not
getting stung -- this was shot from about 4 inches away!

"Winter Reflections"
by Taylor Baskin |
I stumbled onto this scene while doing some scouting in Yosemite during
my last visit. I was first drawn to the scene by the crisp
reflections of the snow covered trees in the distance. But as I
shot close ups of the banks, I noticed the clouds above starting to
turn orange in the late afternoon light.
I threw on my blue-n-gold filter to help really bring out those warm
tones and
took this wide angle view of the Mereced River and Yosemite's valley
walls. I only wish I could have fit all of the three rocks into my
composition.

"City Snow"
by John Daly |
Nevada
City was first settled in 1849, during the California Gold Rush, as
Nevada (meaning "snow-covered", a reference to the snow-topped
mountains in the area). The Gold Tunnel on the north side of Deer Creek
was the city's first mine, being located in 1850.
