Your expertopinions are wanted!
Look at these pictures and tell me what YOU would do. Look at photo P8160590 first, looks like a pretty need beech. Take a closer look at the branch at the right, you see a gap between two reasonable big branches. Than take a look at 587, a big branch broke out in the same storm where you can see pictures at 'really northern tree specialists'. Since than smaller branches have come down due to sunburn and to heave foliage in combination with unstable environment. The lower metal holder was loosened after the new one was in its place. (in my eyes saved half the tree from coming down) Everything is in stainless steel, custom made, the owner values the tree. A little bit higher is another anchor placed in the tree. What to do with this tree, considering that this is our municipality's biggest beech.
