Think of bonsai like a pyramid. You can't build a pyramid until each later underneath is solid. The lower layers are more important than the upper layers. It is the same with bonsai. The most important part of the bonsai is the nebari - the base of the tree where it meets the soil. It gives the tree its power and character - it is the hardest thing to get right, and takes the longest to develop. From the nebari, working your way up the tree, the next most important part is the trunk - it's character, line and taper. Then you get to branches - their placement, taper, line, etc. Then you get to the ends of the branches and see the ramification, balance, and character of the foliage.
I am keeping this really simple but the point is this - it doesn't MATTER if you have great ramification if the trunk is flawed. It doesn't MATTER if you have perfect branches if the nebari is weak. You have to fix the important things first, and then move on with the rest of the tree.
When someone who knows black pines looks as this tree, we see a 3 year old tree seedling with nothing else going for it. It has NO nebari, it has NO trunk, it has no age or character. It is not a bonsai. To MAKE it a bonsai you have to start with the basics - which starts with improving the nebari and thickening the trunk, which in black pines takes YEARS. So that is why people aren't commenting on the design.
Most of this statement would also apply to this small matchstick size pine.
While this place may be fickle as all get out, I have no idea why people do not see this as perfect raw material for growing out a nice pine. This is exactly the kind of material I look for when I am looking for something to play with. The movement that is in this tree right now may look weird to the untrained eye, but after two or five years of growing the movement in this pine will be awesome. I do not consider myself an expert in any way but unlike my colleagues I can show you some pictures of a pine not unlike yours that was developed in three years. I have very little experience with pine material, but I make up for that with moxy.
