great looking show Sam!!! the trees look awesome!! I love the use of the "boxes" to really appreciate the trees from all around.... looks like a really great show!!!


ok I have to ask.... did you make the tall root stand and where can I get one??? I am guessing the other great stands are your work as well....

 

[sam]

thanks eric, daygan, brian, for the compliments.

sorry eric, the stands are all from japan-most of them very old. as to then tall root stand, if I ever get to the point where my work even approaches this quality-I'll die and go to heaven

best wishes, sam

Very nice! Like Eric I love the stands too. Thanks for sharing the photos. Wish I could have seen your expo in person.

Woof. That looks like a great exhibit! Thanks for taking the time to post it up!

 

[sam]

thanks ron, thanks judy.

unfortunately my little point and shoot leaves a lot to be desired in terms of picture quality. a friend took a bunch of photos with a good camera. when I get those, I will post some

best wishes, sam
