hi amigos new to the site so thought id put a picture of my work to see wat u guys think:confused1:

[John Hancock]

Wow! That was a reduction alright.

[Ian C]

Think you might have gone a bit heavy there, kept the shape though.

Ditto

[MattJordan]

Yer a bit too thinned, still looks nice a shaped though, bet the customer has happy:)

[Stuart A-C]

Must of let a lot of light through, look at the brightness of the 2nd photo in contrast to the first one!!

[HBW]

If it's what the customer want's fair enough but the tree's been massacred.

[Stephen Blair]

far from being an expert on thining large mature trees, but how will that tree react now?can a beech take that kind of heavy pruning? i would of thought with all the open wounds she wont last that long. not being crytical mate, that is great shape and you must have a lot of climbing skill to carry out that job, just curious to know how it will end up:001_smile:

[felixthelogchopper]

Was that degree of reduction the original spec or as a result of the customer asking for a bit more off? Again, you have done a great job on retaining the shape, I'm just curious.

[White Noise]

Excellent job for retaining the shape . Although a tad to much thinning . This is just my opinion . Was the tree covered by a T.P.O if so what was the original spec . Cheers .
