Well the pot arrived and the tree went in. It potted very easy as I think this tree has previously been in a bonsai pot. Only took about 1/3 of the roots off if that. I have a poor quality photo of it but I will wait till hopefully this weekend and post a good photo of it. As a teaser here is the pot...

Just keeping the suspense going. It's a time issue for me. I have my camera in my phone, or a DSLR. I need a point and shoot to carry around...

I plan on setting up a shoot today. But we will see.
I'll prob just get lazy!

firstly i find the rivets distracting in this setting. they have no thematic relevance. the pot its self is to smooth and clean for this twisted graggy old bugger.
these are the feelings this conjures up for me. doesn't mean its wrong or right for you. :D
