Thanks for all the pics of the trees! Sorry I couldn't be there. Would have been awesome to see in life.

Glad to read that the conference was so good.

Hi Fella's , good to see some pics of the quality bonsai hiding in this country . I recognize a couple of these tree's , pics don't do them justice so i guess next year i will have to put the footwork in and get along there . While i did catch up with a couple of members down Mornington way , that's about the extent of my travels over the last 6 months .Looks like another 6 months before i travel again .Some more pics from the very lucky people attending please . Break a leg .

Cheers Alpineart

Gerard, thank you for sharing your photos of your wonderful experience. Wish I could have been there. Unfortunately, work got in the way. Glad you and many other ausbonsai members had a good time.

Thanks for the photos Gerard

Any chance of labelling each photo with species, and possibly owner if known? I am curious to know what species the trees are in the first photo of the last bunch of photos. (image 063.jpg)

[Waltron]

I'm really disappointed I couldn't get along to see this; considering how close it was to home.
Any news on Boon's thoughts of the display?
Thank you Gerard for posting photos.

Wish you could have been here, lots of Ausbonsai friends would love to catch up.
Book it in,
This time next year Ryan Neil in Canberra.

I do not know them all but I am happy to identify a specific photo.
The pine group is 'pinus radiata', it would be improper to identify the owner for security reasons.

Hi.

As a mere beginner, with nothing to show.

A beginner with much to see, i am.

Thank you for the photo's.

Regards.
Irish.
