Lumberjack leaping from tree to tree by shannejw

Lumberjack leaping from tree to tree

When the tree surgeons spent the day noisily taking down the trees out the back of me, I was hoping that the song challenge was running as I had the Lumberjack Song as a mental soundtrack. But that's got a week's rest, so I'm still posting it as a six word story.

Three good things:
1. Lemon chicken for lunch worked really well (with salad and baked potatoes);
2. Mushrooms on toast for supper were delicious - and we both loved, followed by raspberries;
3. Much though I didn't like the trees coming down, it's so much lighter in my bedroom.

Thank you for looking and all your amazing comments. You're all amazing. I prefer to spend time looking at your pictures rather than thanking you individually below.
Beautiful b&w shot. Looks like he has a dangerous job.

Very nice as b&w. Did they take them completely down or just thin them?

@shutterbug49 cut the tops off, to less than half the height.

Nice B&W shot. Still gives me the chills thinking about people up in trees with a chainsaw.... no room for errors in that job!

You are so good with all these challenges!

Haha, did you just conjure them up for this shot?

@peadar @fbailey I couldn't miss them - 6 hours of work, and quiet they were not.

More light in the house really makes a difference, enjoy!

A nice b&w shot and ideal for the six word story.

There's been a lot of trees coming down in our area too- mostly for building. It won't be long before everyone is upset about the temperatures rising and the area being hotter than it used to be. Duh... you just cut down all the plants that keep this area cool! ah progress. Good shot.

what's the colour of his outfit? methinks this is one of those instances where colour or selective colour would be more effective. but good for you for capturing this.

@summerfield he was wearing the same dark green as the trees he was working on, so the b&w gave him a bit more definition. He'd taken off the orange hi-vis jacket and left at floor level, leaving on the orange hard hat, only
