Have you ever seen an oak tree dance?

Britain is full of 'lost' rainforests, predominantly in the southwest and northwest of England, western/northwestern parts of Wales and the west coast of Scotland. There are other areas where the conditions are perfect too, like this one in the Peak District National Park.

When the rain starts and the cloud base drops into the rainforest, the trees come alive. Everywhere you look, there is magic and mystery.

@timsmalley These photos are beautiful.
@Liz23smr thanks very much
@timsmalley You're welcome. I really appreciate beautiful photos like yours. Mine never come out that good.😞
@Liz23smr thanks for your kind words - practice and patience are the key... and then a healthy dose of local knowledge :)
I'm curious What kind of camera do you use? Or do you use your phone?@timsmalley

@Liz23smr I use a variety of cameras. It's my full-time income, so the main cameras I use are Sony Alpha full-frame (36x24mm sensor) cameras from the A7 series. I also have a more compact A6400 for family time/travel and an A5100 converted for infrared photography.

I also have a variety of film cameras from 35mm, 6x7cm and 6x9cm medium format and 4x5-inch large format.

Most of my woodland photography nowadays is shot on an A7R III.

OK I'm suitably impressed! I once had a Bessler Topcon 35mm (my uncle worked for them) which I tried to use. Took a few decent photos, but couldn''t really get the hang of it Now I have a basic point & shoot Canon which I hardly use I'll never be in your league 😂 @timsmalley
