The sumo field maple - part 3

On April 21 we had the big tree slaughtering festival in my garden. All the trees were worked on which are just too big for me alone.

1) spring 2006: one can see the reult of the wire biting in on the top. This will have to be corrected.
2) spring 2007: before
3) after doing the main maintenance work. Not so bad after all.
