So, this is my chinese elm, and as you can see, it's seminaked now. (forget about the actual wiring , it's not operative, just a test)
I know, the resulting tree should be a bit unballanced, but I'm confident I can perform this movements (red is downwards, blue is turning) using wires and guy wires:
It's the first (and maybe the only) bonsai in my collection. It was gifted to me, and has at least 20 years of training.
In my first year, I barely dared to phisically touch it. I thought it was perfect.
But as I have learnt more, now I can see the flaws in the tree. I know I can spot them in my 3D view, and you can't have that view, but, as an exercise you can try to guess wich you think can be the most important flaw in the pics above. (I'll give you some space here)
The most important of them is to me, is that branch (the only one) that comes abruptly downwards (and wich is also inside the trunk's line)
What I am planning is to get rid off it. I have done it in this pics to have a visual:

Don't missunderstand me, I love this tree, and should hate to make a bad step.
Am I missing something?..(any tip or caveat will be very welcomed)
