Another view of the 'Singing Ringing Tree'. I used a fisheye lens up close to the subject to try to capture some detail whilst taking in the wider picture so to speak. I have no polariser for this lense hence the sky appears somewhat 'washed-out' but the overall effect I think is credible.
Please critique and tell me what you think.
Cheers, Keith

Burnley's Panopticon, 'Singing Ringing Tree', is a unique musical sculpture which overlooks Burnley from its position high above the town on Crown Point.
Constructed from pipes of galvanised steel, it takes the form of a tree bending to the winds and harnesses the energy of those winds to produce a low, tuneful song.
'Singing Ringing Tree' is close to the Dunnockshaw Millennium Wood, part of the Forest of Burnley reforestation programme, and links to the Pennine Bridleway and local walking routes. Many native tree and bird species are to be observed.
The site offers a spectacular panorama of East Lancashire: to the north, a wonderful view of Pendle Hill; to the east, a glimpse of the Cliviger wind turbines on the Yorkshire border; and in between, a panoramic overview of the town of Burnley, with the famous Turf Moor football stadium at its centre. On a clear day you can see the Bowland Fells, Pendle, Ingleborough, Pen-y-ghent and Great Whernside. |
