A tree trimming operation is underway in a residential area. A tall, somewhat bare tree, split into two main trunks, stands prominently, heavily populated with mistletoe. A worker, equipped with safety gear, is positioned high in the tree, secured with ropes, and cutting branches with a chainsaw. Another person stands on the ground, appearing to assist. Cut branches and foliage litter the ground around the tree. A metal fence runs along the edge of the property, separating the tree and work area from the sidewalk and street. In the background are apartment buildings, giving context to the residential setting. The sky is clear and blue, providing bright, sunny conditions for the operation.
