This old tree in Belvoir Forest Park, Belfast, Northern Ireland, is one of my favourite subjects for photographing. It looks interesting from many different angles and magnificent on a sunny autumn day.
Here, in a gulley below the tree, I have captured it from what I think is the best angle. Having taken probably hundreds of shots of this tree, this photo is one of my favourites, as the foliage, the lighting, and even the cloud formations are as good as I've seen them.

This is a reworking of this deviation:
The previous deviation was HDR. This is mostly a single exposure, with only the sky blended in from a bracketed exposure.
Best viewed at large size.

This is an absolutely inspirational photograph. I found myself considering heading to Belvoir at some point to try to find this tree to paint, though I suspect a lot of the beauty comes from your photography skills!
I like the angle.

Beautiful! I like the angle that you took this in. it's like the viewer is standing underneath the tree, and the tree is beautiful and protecting. Nice job!
