Re: pruning question

Kinda difficult, Donna, without being able to walk around it and kick the tires. But in the bottom picture, I'd get rid of all that twiggy stuff [those are temporary branches; they're never going to amount to anything] and maybe that lateral to the left [I don't like its angle to the trunk; looks like a major break or split waiting to happen].

Well I have to go out this afternoon, so in a bit of hurry here....

But with the pruning thoughts, I have uploaded my tree pictures (well I hope
they are there, didn't have a chance to check, and they are beeping for me
to get in the car :)....)

Anyways... what thoughts do you guys have on which branches etc I should
remove...

BTW it is a purple leaf plum tree or something like that... no time to
check.

Oops... might need this to see them:
