Hi Andrew,

Part 3 is again another fantastic video mate, it gives a small insight into and a great perspective on what it would be like to study abroad and further one's journey into Bonsai. That is aanother great result with the Juniper you worked on.

I'm sure it will inspire many fellow Aussies to take the next step.

Cheers

David

It's a great video no doubt.

However unlike many other posts around here that look for comment/assistance/opinion - I'm not sure that this offer fits the same category?

I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Look forward to a four if there is one?
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

i agree with Shannon here there is much to learn even simply from just observing the transformation of the juniper in the video.
Andrew very well done, im enjoying these videos immensely. it goes to show that creating great trees; 1 - comes down to stock but 2 - is the basic skills learnt from experiences such as yours that are fundamental to great bonsai design which is applicable to any form, style or genre of bonsai.

Thanks for the support shan,i know what you mean. i dont make them for the fame or glory (its to get the girls haha) but it is nice to have ppl appreciate the hard work that goes into making these, an the fact there is not to much on the net like it.As long as ppl enjoy it and hopefully get inspired, im happy.
Thanks and I agree hugh, going through the fundamentals is one of the most import factors to creating good bonsai.....an good stock goes along way too ;)
Cheers
