I'd imagine that second shot will probably perfectly sum up this portion of your life story Reg.

 

Truly fantastic composition.

 

I could only dream of taking such a cracking shot

Few from welly dead wood/snag hanger removal from yesterday nearly bottled it two thirds of the way up far to windy and with three houses under it we had rope out split and snagged branches in to a tiny DZ for size of tree, oh and it had a phone wire straight under it!! Was not to bad as they flew out like kites!!

Thats a big old girl Matt. Where abouts is she?

Nothing fancy from me I'm afraid. There are several of these Pin Oaks around town that have been hammered back hard for years. There's never anything on the upper laterals except for a few months when all the epicormic shoots away. We're taking these down over the course of 2 or 3 years and replanting with a more suitable species for the location. When I took these down today all the upper limbs had these splits and scars along them and wondered if it was due to scorching or something else. And one of my 56 year old trainee having the time of his life. In 2 months he's learnt how to drag brush, use the Bandit and just passed his basic chainsaw ticket. I let him fell a tree yesterday and he ran around the place whooping and bouncing like a 10 year old with a new toy.

Not at the moment David but, as it happens, I saved the lump of wood with that bracket on so I'll try and remember to get a close up for you tomorrow.
