Been a while since I walked this lane with the dogs and it was a treat to find this horses head sculpture at the entrance of the stables farm shop. I liked it so much I took four photo's of it then couldn't decide which angle I liked best so kept them all.
A couple more pics of the recent demise of the huge conifer at the bottom of our garden. Once you can see the neighbour's house through it, you get a better impression of how big it actually was!
I was on call all weekend, and was constantly in and out of the hospital. As a result, there was no way I was going into the "office" to take photos for today's FGR pick, Office Space. Instead, I went to where I would like to work, and wore the distinctive garb of my profession.
While I was taking 30 second dash non-pose posing shots with my camera on a tripod, a sheriff's cruiser slowed on the lonely country road. The deputy seated inside called me over. "We got several calls about a bright flash in the sky out here, did you see anything?" he asked me.
I started to say no, but I recognized the deputy as a friend. Because of my mask, he did not recognize me. "Yeah," I replied. "There was a biright flash in the sky, first white, then pink. About a minute later, a substance similar to tinsel began drifting down. Then it vaporized about three feet off the ground."
The deputy was transfixed, studying me and my tripod closely. "But you can't tell anybody." I continued. "This area is contaminated. We are at Decon 5." The deputy rolled up his window, I removed my mask. After my cursing, we both got a good laugh.

A sight not often seen in the UK in February!
The UK has just experienced its hottest winter day ever.
The last few days have been exceptionally warm and a temperature of 21.2C was recorded in London.

This rare black poplar (populus nigra) has been a landmark on the Chesterfield Canal at Cinderhill in S. Yorkshire. Unfortunately it is dying and unsafe so tree surgeons from Rotherham Borough Council have begun to remove it. You can just see the man in the tree and the branch falling.
We are not sure how old it is but 50 years would be a conservative estimate. In the position it stands, if it was blown down, it would damage the canal bridge, a house and some out buildings. I will be very sad to see it go.
My neighbours have had a tree in their garden cut down. The tree surgeons have loaded large logs into one van and are now shredding the smaller pieces. One would have to handle this piece of equipment with skill and care as it can devour a branch thicker than a man's arm.
Down at Lepe beach last week for a nice peaceful walk when the sound of a buzz saw filled the air. Trees had become unsafe with the high winds we had recently
There's a story to tell about this tree but I will tell that in the morning as its late and I want to go to bed, however I have just spotted this is my 1000th upload to Flickr which coincides rather nicely with there being just 10 days left in my 366!
So, this Beech tree is very old - approx' 400 years, and according to the Tree Surgeon is the most diseased tree he's ever worked on! It's in our next door neighbours garden but right against our fence with a significant amount of it overhanging the garden and house.About two months ago a twenty foot long branch fell from it flattening our garden table - which just a few hours before we had been sat at eating dinner!
After a significant amount of wrangling with the council's tree officer we managed to get approval for the removal of the TPO on the tree and their agreement to do the work as out neighbour could not afford the £3000 cost of its removal.
The work finally began on Thursday and after two days this is what was left (which is quite a lot still!)
This is 163 frames at my usual settings followed by another with the tree being lit with four flashes of a gelled SB-900 then stacked using StarStax.
I might do something else with the tree tonight depending on what it looks like after today's work!
While they where here, the tree surgeons got this dead stump out of the middle of the lawn. No more mowing round it!!!
This huge fir tree took up loads of space in my garden and light from my conservatory - so it had to go!
A tree surgeon cutting back one of the lime trees in the avenue between the Square and Winchester-Cathedral.
The avenue of Lime trees were originally planted during the middle of the 18th Century, however the practice of pollarding used to manage the growth of the trees led to structural damage and decay and those trees were felled during 1985 and new trees were planted.
However to form the rapid growth of a new avenue the trees were planted too close together and as a result they were damaging each other as they grew bigger, so now every second tree on each side has been removed to try to encourage strong healthy growth of the remainder.
With the removal of the fourteen trees the view of the Cathedral from it's approach has been improved, although it has meant that our local artist, Don Levine has had to modify his latest painting before it was completed! See the following photos.
Daredevil palm tree trimmers in Claremont, Southern California, known as "The City Of Trees." It should be called The City Of Trees and Tree Trimmers.
The men are cutting back the undergrowth at the side of the path. I stopped to have a pleasant chat.

Bedlam trying to get home this evening with the anarchy which is the Manchester road network at the moment wasn't exactly helped by the enormous Copper Beech tree that has blown down in the winds this evening outside my front door.
Really sad to see it being chopped up as it was such a beautiful tree and looked stunning during the spring when it starts to get its leaves back.
Whilst I'm sad to see the tree go, I'm just relieved that nobody was hurt as it's a busy road, especially during school hours.
