Unfortunately I need to withdraw my entry as booked flights cannot be changed. It would be far better for the prize to go to someone who can make full use of this very generous competition.
Good luck all,
Cheers Marie

oh wow, that 'peppermint1' photo from you Gerard, is amazing.

Yep, lovely shots Gerard.

I doff my cap to you .. or at least, I just walked past a shop in Melbourne and will let this man doff his cap to you!

Very cool Gerard! Love that shot of the moss and stone

Ahhh! The bonsai life!

Bus loaded up with plants for masterclasses and heading to Canberra. No need to consider this photo for the comp. others are better, and I’ve already booked. See whoever wins down there.

What an awesome bunch of photos and posts!
Whoever wins deserves it immensely.

Now on that note I have just had a phone call from Steven and he advised that he is stuck in transit and not able to get internet access to announce the winner at the time he has promised!
How primitive of him !!!

He is most apologetic and as soon as he is able, he will connect up and and say to announce the very deserving Winner of this comp

Stay tuned
Ken

Oh bugger, forgot to enter before it ended! haha.
Goodluck to all that got their act together!

Some lovely shots and I really appreciate the time that you all put into these images.
It was very tough to judge but I kept coming back to one image that really appeals to me.
Congratulations to Ryceman3 for his image of the Scots Pine seedlings. Ryceman3, better pack your bags and book a flight cause you're off to Canberra to workshop and spend time with the Masters!
A special mention also needs to go to Gerard for the variety and quality of his images, to Melbrackstone for the high quality and evocative shots and to all other entrants too.

Regards,
Steven

Ummm.... WOW!
As everybody knows I guess... I love a pine seedling so I’m super happy this one got picked!
I never really win anything so I am super happy and completely pumped to be a part of the weekend - I’ve got a bit to do between now and Friday!!
I really enjoyed following this thread and was blown away by a lot of the images posted, there was lots of great stuff which must have made the decision hard for Steven.
I am incredibly humbled to get this opportunity, I hope to do Ausbonsai proud!

Massive congratulations Ryceman! Thoroughly deserved for all the passion you put in!

That is a fantastic choice. Ryan I am stoked for you. A most deserved winner who’s passion shines with every post. From the basement, to the rooftop to Canberra. Enjoy the trip mate. Well done and again, thanks to Steven and all who administer this site. Great stuff.

What a cool opportunity and great pics all. Congrats Ryceman!

I wouldn't of been able to enter but it did get me thinking too, this pic is what I came up with.

Sweet shot, congrats Ryan. Enjoy your weekend..... lots more pic’s when you get back
Cheers
