Nice pics, MP. Is that you or your dad? You did say he was quite a climber.

 

[monkeypuzzle]

Thats me.On crane jobs I do all the saw work,the old man riggs.I have to let him have some fun. After all these years he really isn't that good with a saw.

Now,when it comes to tall skiny pine trees, I can't touch him.I once read in Arborist News there is no such thing as "a bold,older climber"thats just not true. He has no plans to stop climbing at 59.

I am going to pic up a digital camera this week,now that I see some light with this posting a pic mess.Any suggestions on a good small camera?

Craig, that would get quite a reaction, I'm sure. Most arborists don't wear bowties.

Can you reformat to JPG and resize?

JPS, I'm learning.I did that tree about this time last year and I am just now getting my first pic in. Give me some pointers.

MP-
.JPG pictures use a lot less pixels than .GIF pictures and are quicker to download. If you are using Windows, you can open your picture with Paint and save the image as a .JPG image. With most versions you can also manipulate the size using the 'stretch/skew' feature. That way you can reduce the picture to a size easily downloaded and viewed from the forum.

Yer obviously a 'Noles fan, the way you wrassled that (U of F) Gator to the ground!

Ut oh, it might be considered 'off topic'! See if I can salvage it- Did you know that gators can climb over 6' fences, walls and even up some smaller trees? I've never seen a gator in a tree I've climbed though. Good thing, or wee might be back on the pee-pee thread!

That is spice!

How big is Spice? I had met an asian water monitor this summer named Godzilla... that was some lizard.

Thanks for the clarification i just thought he was fornicating with it.

With a photo program you can adjust the size of the pic so that it will fit the screen too, if you take the stock sizes the give you may be croping the top off or squeezing the prerspective.

Play with the program a little.
