Chasing Magic in the Rain: A May Morning at Puzzlewood
The forecast had promised showers, but as any landscape photographer knows, overcast skies and gentle rain often create the most enchanting conditions. So when I set out for Puzzlewood in the Forest of Dean on a drizzly May morning, my camera bag packed with rain covers and high hopes, I knew I was in for something special.
Puzzlewood has long been on my photography bucket list. This ancient woodland, with its twisted moss-covered rocks and mysterious pathways, has served as a filming location for everything from Doctor Who to Star Wars. But no amount of screen time can prepare you for the otherworldly atmosphere when you step onto those winding wooden walkways yourself.
