Outstanding! Mark and Rita Cooper's Shohin are just amazing.

It floors me when this show is poo-pooed. The people (mainly from across the Pacific) that go on about how Noelanders is somehow less than a wonderful exhibition of bonsai art, because it is full of imported trees of Japanese origin, fail to appreciate the talent it takes to maintain and improve trees of that level.

Thank-you for the links Marlene.

Cheers,
Mojo

From Mr Palls blog:

Larch

Bends the rules ever so slightly as a formal upright, but I just love the tree.

unfortunately there are some examples here that fail to accomplish the left branch, right branch, back branch rule, along with the trunk width vs height rule... ;)
