We Are Photo’s April 2023 Meet-up at Birchanger Woods, Bishop Stortford: A Day of Photography, Bluebells, and Scenic Walks

Bluebell photography

This past weekend, We Are Photo took a scenic stroll through Birchanger Woods in Bishop Stortford to capture the beauty of bluebell season. The woods were in full bloom, with carpets of delicate blue flowers transforming the forest floor into a magical sight. It was the perfect opportunity for our members to connect with nature, share photography tips, and, of course, snap some stunning shots.

As we wandered through the woodland paths, I set a few fun challenges for the group. The goal was to not only capture the beauty of the bluebells but also to experiment with different angles and lighting to bring out the unique character of the flowers and the surrounding forest. From wide shots showcasing the sweeping carpets of blue to close-ups highlighting the intricate details of the blooms, everyone had a chance to push their creative boundaries.

The walk was leisurely, giving everyone the space to explore and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The energy was warm and supportive, as always, with everyone eager to share their insights and learn from each other.

One of the highlights of every We Are Photo meet-up is the group photo at the end. This time, as we gathered together beneath the trees, the sun filtered through the leaves, creating a perfect, soft glow. It was a lovely moment to reflect on the day's shared experiences and to appreciate the sense of community we've built around our love of photography.

Bluebell season may only come around once a year, but the memories of this wonderful day and the photographs we captured will last much longer. If you missed out this time, don’t worry—there are always more events ahead. Stay tuned for our next adventure, and join us to continue capturing moments with like-minded creatives!

If you’re looking to join in on the fun, be sure to keep an eye on our upcoming events. We’d love to have you along for the next photography adventure
