Theme Day: Electricity

Today, March 1, 2012, is Theme Day across the citydailyphotoblog(CDPB) community. Here's my take on today's theme. I call it SHOCKING! A week ago, I turned the corner and headed to work as if it was any other morning, but suddenly it wasn't. I came face to face with this scene. I was shocked! I saw death outside my side window. The sunrise picture above is of the same tree taken about a year ago.

  1. Was it hit by lightening or snow-laden power lines. Either way, it is a sad destruction of a beautiful tree.

  3. Was it in the way Birdman, just wondering why they chopped it down?

  4. Unfortunately, trees can topple over at the slightest provocation: high wind, ice, age.

  9. It makes for an electrifying sight, also. Re your comment about undertaker(s): the word, "undertaker" doesn't rhyme with stop! Sheesh! But you're right, it would be worse.

  10. Ashes to ashes . . . It looks like it was a healthy tree. Hmmmm. Wonder why someone decided it need to go . . .

  12. Oh! Those trees seem so invincible until . . .they're not. Sad to see one go like that, but clever choice for the theme day, birdmanerino.
