Any chance of a pic of this beauty in leaf

At the end of summer when it's looking at it's absolute worst? See what I can do.........

I would have thought you'd taken a picture of it throughout the year (you old timer), I only remembered this lovely maple today.

I am surprised you do not defoliate your maples In January to obtain a new set of undamaged leaves so you get better colour in Autumn

I thought that was standard practice for any decent looking deciduous tree ?

It was done last year but I felt it was a bit weak this year. I'm not sure they like it every year.
The tridents were done tree times this season but only partially - not every leaf.

Would you consider just defoliating the top, if the tree isn't in optimum health?
