greetings,
this is my ficus microcarpa. i just started getting into bonsai after attending the local club's spring auction in june. i have been practicing on some pre-bonsai material i've picked up at the auction and local garden centers. i've been doing a lot of reading and video watching.
anyways, what do you think of my ficus microcarpa? i welcome feedback but please be gentle as this is the first tree i have ever wired and i am only a few months into bonsai : )

a close up on the front - the tiger bark is much more apparent when wet, but i haven't taken a picture of that yet
next to the ficus benjamina i picked up at the june auction and a bougainvillea i picked up from the garden center and chopped back from ~3 ft tall in july (there's a foot and a half of new growth on the new leader!!). my ficus microcarpa is about a foot and a half tall
thank you all for reading
