Hi Leigh,

He is one of the most humble men you could ever meet, so readily willing to share his knowledge and his trees speak volumes.

A must attend if you can get there IMHO. Might have to see what Ric is doing around that time :shifty:

Cheers

Willow

Linh arrived with all of his supplies ready to go in the morning.
The setting will be 1.2 metres wide by 2.1 metres long.
Linh does not do small settings.

Sorry - I did it in such a rush. I had a new staff member beginning today, so was a little snowed under.
As I took the images on my work phone, I had to email them to myself from the phone then upload to Ausbonsai.
I will resend as larger files then upload again.

Wow, what a fantastic day that must have been.

Will this landscape remain as a part of the collection Leigh?

Thanks for the bigger photos too. :)

Hi Mel

Yes, the setting is on display as a temporary loan. It should be here for Bonsai Week 2018 (19 to 25 March) for everyone to see.
