Thanks Gerard, appreciate the in-focus shots of my olive. :)
Bonsai was meant to keep me away from the computer.

Totally agree with Scott, White pine is great! Shane, did he do a drawing of your olive? I'd love to see it. I saw your olive as you brought it in.. I thought my trees were big, that olive is an absolute beast of a tree!!!

Gerard, you're amazing, thankyou kindly for the photos! :worship:
Really can't wait until he comes back to Perth, one artist that I would really love to work with. I can't get over the sketches, they're so simple, yet very detailed. Are they small sketches? Its hard to judge their size
The bonsai are amazing, they will be some cracker tree's in the futuer!
Have a question? The AusBonsai Wiki most likely has the answer!

Looking for a Nursery or Club near your? Check out the AusBonsai Directory which lists them all

Oh mama there are some nice trees in that critique, absolutely kicking myself I couldn't make any hiro sessions this time around.

Only have to wait another 2 years I suppose.

Yes.

Some amazing trees there.
I too would like to know more about that clump!

Great pictures Gerard.
Thanks for the effort.
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

The trident clump was imported from Japan many years ago, it has a new owner and I am confident it will be seen at future shows.
The white pine was one of the 4 trees at the Sunday demonstration 2 years ago. Here is a reminder

There is a rumour that more work is being done on this tree on Sunday

Thought so. Pitty the branches have been allowed to become so rough though
