On one of the early morning forays into Bradgate park last October (2011) we were waiting for a lone, and inconsiderate, photographer to move out of the way so that the deer could move into the beautiful early morning light and mist. Eventually he did come and join us but in the meantime I was able to get this spectacular silhouette of this grand old tree. My wife’s first reaction was, you’ve ‘photoshopped’ that in!! Not so, it was the real thing.
