Gday folks!
With only hours to go before the doors close on the entries, I am at a loss to find anything other than this to post as my second 'Aged/Styled' tree (forget about any 'New' stock...). A little bit of this tree's history can be seen if you click here. Please find attached some pics of the tree as it was a week or two ago. Following are four aspects of the tree (none of which may be the 'front'):
More to come...
Thanks.
Fly.

I've let this thread slip a little (and probably not a bad thing, as I don't want to make unnecessary clutter in the Contest). While I like the silhouette presented by photo #3, the reality is that the trunk leaves the soil and comes straight at the viewer in that viewing angle. In theory, the 1st photo shows exactly the same silhouette, only reversed, so that the trunk moves away from the viewer initially.
I am currently in the process of trying to tame the wild growth, and hope to have more photos tomorrow.
Thanks.
Fly.

Re: Eucalyptus Camaldulensis Material
G,day mate merry Cristmas to you and yours.
Mr Fly the style is Bunjingi it can and does break the so called rules. If the line is pleasing even though the initial movement is away that is not a problem for me.
I must admit when I had a tree doing that I was inclined as you are, but I persevered, then sold it
Cheers Pup
