Sad Tree, Happy Tree

Our new-to-us woodland has a large number of standing dead trees or ones with bits dangerously hanging off.

Whilst I need to wait until autumn proper to kick off the program of works that is rapidly forming in my head, I am slowly racheting my time up at the woods which is no hardship.

I converted this:

P1010374
P1010375

Into this:
(healthy parts of the tree have been left well alone)

P1010394
P1010395

P1010392
