Here is a photo I'm really proud of, it's a White Cheeked Turaco taken at the Lotherton Hall Bird Garden near Leeds:

The surprising bit is I took that with my phone!

What makes that one for me is the colour, what is that yellow thing in the sky?

Thinking of starting a tree photography thread I like them so much, partly inspired by Fnaar and coffee jo. Does anyone think that is too narrow a subject or do I need to branch out more? Perhaps I should leaf that one alone as lots of people on this thread might not twig on to what I am trying to achieve. The root of the problem is that there are not as many opportunities in an urban environment. I leave it to you folks to decide as I know of a very old tree a few miles away which I might go out and photograph before the snow hits us.
Edit must be recent photos taken by yourself!

Yes, I think it might be poplar, but you might want to spruce it up a bit.

I'm getting the feeling someone is trying to needle me with all this talk of Yews and Poplars. I'm sycamore jokes so off out on bike to get some pics.

For those of you who have posted up pics of trees [Fnaar & coffee jo spring to mind] please put them on the new tree thread in cafe, they are excellent and well worth a second look for those who do not come on this thread.
