Thanks Max, not out of order at all!
I have played with this particular branch over the years moved it into a few different positions and enjoyed the process. The tree is constantly evolving!

Re: 2007 Convention juniper update
Lovely tree, much improved by lightening the foliage.
I'm wondering if you would consider getting a bit more dynamic shaping in the little back branch just behind the highest angle of the left trunk. It's a very important branch, and it might reflect the movement in the trunks and branches better.
Just my 2c., thanks for posting.

Re: 2007 Convention juniper update
Thanks Gavin, you are spot on with this, it was the first thing I saw when I uploaded the photo. In fact I was trying to manipulate this branch a few hours ago. It needs another course of wire to achieve the movement I want but will get done soonGavinG wrote:Lovely tree, much improved by lightening the foliage.

Re: 2007 Convention juniper update
Since junipers gain strength from foliage I prefer to repot and wait for signs of recovery before I reduce the foliage
