Sweet Itoigawa...mind sharing where it came from? I'm looking for one myself. You can find nice ones in Europe, but most won't export to the US. You have to love that deadwood! I am not great at carving, but this one really doesn't warrant any.
If this was mine...and judging only from the photos and using the front shown in the photo with the Coke Can, I might incline it a bit to the right to add some stability to the base, a little movement to the main curve, and improve the overall balance. There is plenty of foliage to make a nice canopy or some pads to give a few peeks into those nice twists, and "stretch" the foliage to make the composition a little wider. Thanks for sharing; great tree!
