Description
Tree trimming at its most expedient, captured 6/4/14, early morning, on my way home from somewhere or another.
Third photo shows the cuttings on the street. The bottom pic shows them being fed into the brush chipper.
Aloha.

I have the tree surgeons at least once a year to do the jobs which I can no longer do.
splendid !
Marvelous shots of the men at work on the trees, Harry. What a big job that is! Dad and I just lightly manicured one of the 200 ft firs in our back garden, and what a tough job that was. We just trimmed a few bits off the lowest branches we could reach (which required a 10 foot stepladder!), and was a real exercise in "accident waiting to happen"! Luckily neither of us got hurt, just winded and sore, and we have the yard waste barrel packed, with enough to fill it twice more. Wish we could get these guys out there!
Good to use professional workers.... Aloha
Men that should be ashamed of their job! Rob
Big sweep to the first 2 pics: In the first, the crane is right between the two trees, and it really reaches up there. The cab or compartment (that holds the worker) is against the shaded part of the trees, which helps him stand out against the highly lit portion next to him. The 2d shot gives us a closer look, and it's great to see how at-ease he looks up there (with a part of the crane resting on the branches!) The 3d shows the utter mess these operations make---you're going in work-sequence here---a cool thing to see in a pic, but not so cool if it's in front of your home. And the final shows the mulch process, in a machine named after a painter, lol! It's a fascinating shot because it's crowded-in by that house back there---awfully close to where they're mulching---with all its visual clutter and juts and jabs. Very well lit, and a true slice of life in a big city.
