Yes, Willow, I rather like the original. Totally different flow and probably blow to it.

Re: Singing Ringing Tree, Burnley
If you take the top couple of layers off the artist's impression it looks more like what's up there now, which is a shame because those top two layers reaching upwards gave it more artistic appeal in my opinion.

It's exactly like the 'original' design - you're just looking at it from a slightly different angle that the photo has been taken from. The 'original' is about six inches high and made out of straws but has been scaled up precisely.

Well I like it, it's a fantastic talking point (this thread proves that) and I think it looks and sounds really good.

But it just doesn't seem to have that 'reaching for the sky' look that the model had. I liked that.

Good Idea Willow, we'll get rid of the real one and keep the model.....
