Palm Tree Thinning

Our favorite palm tree trimmer was back this morning. I have been shooting photographs of this guy almost from the time we first arrived (here is a shot of him from 2012). He comes a couple times a year to clear out the dead fronds and potentially deadly coconuts. I have always photographed him from the ground, but today I had the wherewithal to break out my drone so I could give a sense of what he faces at the top of a 20 meter palm.
