Situated in Belvoir Park, Belfast, I think this is an Acer (Japanese Maple) tree. I was struck by the variety of colours in the foliage on an autumn day in 2008.

I shot this from the ground, looking upwards. The underexposed branches contrast with the colour in the leaves and sky.

Best viewed large.

(Reworked from scratch to enhance the details - 7 August).

I see you followed the old maxim: "Always look up, down, and back."

Thanks Jonny :) I did a fair bit of processing on this, so it doesn't exactly look natural, but I think it looks better for it. Actually it's one of my current faves.
