a job from a while ago, but I've just put the images together in a vid format so thought I'd share.

Nicely done (the tree and vid) and I thought the alternative take on the music was fitting.

When I saw the title thought the beech along spanairds had taken a sudden turn for the worse!

Video really highlights the benefits of keeping photographic documentation of these types of scenarios, maybe should start doing the same with some of the more interesting ones at work ☺

Most enjoyable, and I have never seen a follow-up before of coronet cuts looking so good. Almost sculptural.

thanks chaps, glad you enjoyed it.

Always find it fascinating going back and looking at how pruning wounds and fractures etc develop over a period of time.

those two are still looking OK, but we continue to keep a close eye on them.

 

if vitality & resource allows, a reduction will ensue at some point over the next 18 months

 

 

looking forward to seeing some shots of your new patch & tree populations

Nice couple of videos David thanks for posting; particularly liked the oak at the end.

 

I love managing these old beauties, unfortunately we don't get to do them very much, which I suppose is a good thing in a way......

Please excuse me for being dumb but im still learning and not very experienced. What is the reason for pruning in this way?

[David Humphries]

The coronet & fracturing ?
