Arbitrary clearcut

Seattle City Light cuts trees near power lines regardless of their size or distance from the lines.

  • Cutting trees in April destroys bird nests during peak song bird nesting season.
  • Cutting trees in a wide swath creates a gap in habitat shelter, a DMZ for urban wildlife.
  • Cutting trees on hillsides creates soil erosion when missing leaves can't slow rainfall and tree roots won't absorb water.
  • Cutting trees removes shade and raises the surrounding temperature.
  • Cutting trees demoralizes people.

Black and White

Fresh fallen snow on April 8, 2010 The train was sitting on the tracks at the Bayview Edison road off of Hwy 20 headed towards Annacortes. I really like the black and white of the train. The color is distracting to my eye but the black and white made it pop. Interesting lesson.
