You might have guessed that this is my kind of theme

Love those Chris .... what's not to like about trees, your photos are so varied, every one a gem.
One for starters from me ....Tree reflections.

 

[sirch]

Thanks Susie, there is a very nice painterly effect in your reflection

Couldn't let this one pass without including one of my past chameleons. This is Monty 'Dinky Dinosaur' Jackson. He loved a supervised climb and I loved taking photos of him doing so, although he was soaking up some sun in this shot!



My favourite ever snowy trees photo!

 

[sirch]

Does your chameleon suffer from colour blindness? Nice vibrant photo though.

This was taken back in 2009, great photos all ready. I saw in our village yesterday a monkey tree and do you know I thought of young hissy and if he should draw a monkey theme I'll be ready, don't tell him I said that

I do like a nice tree, or parts of a tree. Here are some on mine.

Nice set @TheAndyA I liked the last one when you posted it elsewhere on TP and I still really like it.

Wow, that first one is a powerful image @Nostromo, good depth of field emphasising the spikes when actually I think the tree might be winning
