I really like this tree, it's unusual, yet very intriguing. Love the combo of the PK(?) pot and it's reflection of colour and texture in the trunk and jin/shari. Quite inspiring ... Even better in 360

Thanks for sharing Steven, Allan and Hard1all

Cheers, Ryan

I am totally agree with Ryan.. This is a good example how the correctly chosen pot enhance the reflection of the tree.

The above photo makes the top half of the tree look fairly straight, but in the 360 degree view we see all the gentle twists and turns.
A wonderful tree and a great example of the benefit of the 360 view.

I personally think this is not the correct front for this tree. After viewing it in 360 it (for mine) has a couple of better choices for frontal viewing. A good tree all the same.

Could Allan maybe elaborate on his comments:"Is soon to have the lowest branch, opposite jin, removed and the apex as well. A new apex will be then created taking the same direction as the jin to give the tree greater movement and more presence" or maybe even do a quick sketch.

i like the look of it, as is.
