Not in the way that you should during the holidays! Damnit!
Well this is not the way I wanted to start my holiday themed month of December.
When I got home the entire neighborhood (of townhomes) was being demolished by a hoard of tree cutters, it was like a bad Capitol One Card commercial down here.
The property owners have decided to "trim" all the trees in time for the holidays. Well really to prevent property damage from over grown trees too close to the townhomes.
Many of the largest trees were simply cut down to prevent them from falling on to roofs, some are being destroyed by bugs.
So I ask this guy, before he started on our tree, "Are you cutting, or trimming?" Oh just trimming he says. Yeah right Jackass! This is how my tree looked before. http://www.pbase.com/lundy/image/43234985
Oh btw I mangled pixels, worse than he did my tree, when making this composite so I am sure it looks pretty bad on your screen. In RAW, from the same single image, I changed the exposure to bring out the sky and then one of the ground. I didn't have much luck putting them together and making the composite. It looks strange on my screen.
