Very nice. It is great that there is some movement in one direction, then more exaggerated movement in another direction. I see this in trees on windswept headlands. How tall are they?

Yes they are a bugger to refine..But refine you must!
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
