Just admiring your Juniper 8-) and see if I can create something like yours from a Squamata that was bought from the Community Market. But with a unique twist/bend
Nice work though Kez :imo: :yes:
Kind Regards

Here's an update on this tree,

Is going well, and I've been doing some work on the trunk in light of a recent discussion on here

Beautiful tree. Great combination of tree and pot and very good photos - gives you a really good sense of how the tree looks in real life. Well done all round.

Spent a couple of hours with this tree today,

I had taken all the wire off about 4 months ago as some of it was biting in, and I wanted to give it some time to be a tree

Here's the tree this morning, no wire

The trunk, jins and shari work very well, and you are careful in your refining. For my 2c, (and it's only my opinion) -would you consider leaning the tree over to the left, and losing the bottom left branch, that seems to lie a long way out? At the moment the trunk is vertical, and the foliage masses on are more or less equal on either side - maybe if it leans, and one side is stronger, the design becomes a bit more dynamic, which suits the movement in the trunk.

Again I emphasise, only my 2c. I'd love to have it to play with.

Should be a good spring/summer for this one

Lovely image Kerrin.

Quite a stunning tree.
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
