I would like to have a go at a Cedar literati. I like the trees that have a straight trunk and a jin at the top with the branches starting below the jin.

Something like this:

Someone posted a nice one on Bosai Nut, but I can't seem to find it. So if you could post your Cedar literati trees in this style, I would really appreciate it.

Any photo will do. It doesn't have to be a tree you own. I just need something to aim for.

FWIW, that's not a cedar. It is a juniper that is called "Eastern Red Cedar" (juniperus Virginiana).

Don't know what kind of cedar you have, but these are john Naka's blue atlas cedars at the national arb at the National Arboretum in Washington DC.

I think the North Carolina Arboretum has a BLue Atlas Cedar literati bonsai. That may be what you're after
