How about loosing the left trunk altogether on this one?

Oddly I didn't see all the later photos of the continued work on the tree when I posted that suggestion. Slow connection where I was yesterday may be why? Glad to see how this turned out it's really cool to see it later on. I do like the lean better on the first version though, as it reads more bunjinesque.

Bittersweet isn't it to see all these memories? I find that age gives and takes. Thanks for sharing your memories of those trips.

It occurs to me that the link in the first post did not work. I place it here if you feel it is more useful to your journey in bonsai.

Always a fight. You're more defensive than my wife.

Would anyone find this tree, or any, if they were at home wasting time on bullshit?

No, no they would not.

Thanks for making that point.

douche.

Bonsai is supposed to calm the soul.
