One of my favorite trees, the owner allowed me to photograph maybe 18 months ago (spring 2011), was recently wired by Yusuke. Although we are comparing spring and autumn foliage and the recent photo has longer needles, the subtle changes in shape have filled the canopy nicely. I look foreward to seeing the tree in another 18 months with spring candles and shorter needles.
Another black pine at the NBPCA (slanting style) caught my eye when I was there during the convention, it also had the "Yusuke touch".
I love the detail of Yusuke's wiring, heavy branches are pulled down and buds are all beautifully spaced and facing upwards.Black pine after Yusuke rewire.

Re: Black pine after Yusuke rewire.
Yes, stunning, good wiring makes such a difference. But so does having a great tree to start with. A beautiful tree all round.
