This view made it worth the struggle to get to work after four days in bed with fever. Plus 20-meter birch (my rope didn’t reach the ground when anchored in top).
It was down for crown clean and weight reduction if needed. It looked more like a thin afterward. So many branches were growing in circles, but I guess I could have left more on the tree. It’s hard sometimes because clients so often get more happy if they can see a big change to the tree.
Then we did some smaller jobs in a garden. The client wanted all his trees reduced to a ball on a stick. Sometimes it makes me think that people that desperately want to control nature is afraid of death, or maybe life.
