Topped... by marlboromaam

Topped...

Just about even with the mistletoe. Shot in black and white.

Please be sure to do some abstract shots and tag them with abstract-51. Kicking it off today!
Why top instead of prune/trim? Is it close to the house?

@kvphoto It didn't need trimming. Was growing straight up like a narrow Christmas tree and I want it to spread out. They topped five trees for me and trimmed a few more. They were done and gone before the guy grinding two stumps was finished. Took him three hours to grind one huge sweet-gum stump down and he didn't get it all. =(

Ok... that makes sense... It is awesome that you were able to get the stumps ground... I hate seeing stumps and/or tripping over them!

@kvphoto I wish I had the money to get some more ground down. I couldn't keep up with the sucker trees coming up from the roots of the sweet gums, so had to get those done.

@marlboromaam it is so cool to watch the stump grinder as its operated by remote control,,, the one we had last and also our neighbor was done this way.
