Spent a few hours in the shed so first up is a tea light in Laburnum.

I turned this Pear out of Yellow Cedar.

I found a nice piece of Yew so turned this bowl.

A good job on all three, the only thing which you may say is me being picky is the foot on the yew bowl, yes it need one but just a little smaller in height for me it need to be just tall enough to lift the bowl off of the table but not that tall that it shows
 
Looks like some nicely turned and finished items, you just need to work on your photography!
 
Nice one Keith!

It's about time more people showed their work in my opinion.

I love the Laburnum tea light shape - really classy and pleasing shape.
The pear is cool - I've not delved into fruit as yet, but I'd like to have a closer look at that with a darker background :)
I agree with Chas, the bowl foot needs to be more subtle. Recently I learnt how to remove it completely and it's definitely the way to go, but a thinner one would look cool too.

This is all positive stuff though - love to see more!

:D
 
Laburnum, what a wonderful finish it has! Good going.

Be interested to see any apples you may have.
