Wont be long guys! Just waiting on judges and the collation of votes. Cheers,
Leigh.

Its all good. We're patient

ha ha you'd think bonsai as a hobby would be bad if you weren't...

Thanks for being so patient.

The judges votes are in and I have tallied the results. Once again - a very close contest with some brilliant virts - a few of which I would be stoked to be able to create in reality.

Thanks to all who have entered, next month's victim wont be far away - hopefully we will get a stack more people involved. Dont forget - there are great prizes each month and a fantastic grand final after 12 months.

This months winner is:


ASH - well done mate - a brilliant virt.

Extremely close runners up are:

Aaron
Jamie
DavidN

Ash - get in touch with me via PM to let me know what you have chosen from the prize cupboard and let me know your postal address.

See you next month!

Leigh.

jamie

Yes great work to all. Getting too good for me I need to get my Photo Plus software going. Need a new register code lost the last one.
Then I might stand a chance

so leigh any hints for decembers contest? im busting to get into the final


jamie

Hey Jamie - I was thinking of a monster Magnolia. It would be a good one for those that want to do a bare tree / a bare tree with flowers / and a tree in foliage.

What do you think?

Leigh.

works for me pal opens up a whole heap of options, i reckon we will get a truck load of entries with something like that

what about a forrest setting? pick a group of speices, put them all in the one pic and let us go from there ??? might as well make it a cracker for christmas


jamie

I can do either........anyone else have a preference?

a) a monster magnolia
b) a monster setting of atlantic cedar

Cheers Ash on such a top job!

I'd be happy to have a go at both, make it a double header for 2010.

Thanks Leigh! And the Judges! And all the entrants for your encouraging comments! A Prize Wow

Well done to everyone who put in an entry- there are some great ideas out there and it is a great competition- glad I dropped in. I noticed a couple of comments on back branches and use of photoshop so I will shortly post a quick series of pics on how I drew the ones on this tree- it was much simpler than it looks and is just done with an eraser. This image was done in adobe photoshop which we recently acquired- never trust a photo of my bonsai again

have fun
Ashley

Your a ripper mate a demo on back branches would be great. Not sure you will get it through my thick skull though
