I prefer the top row based on what i perceive as more careful refinement technique that has created better balance. Harmony and openness with a higher level of refinement.I love these different styles, and I think about them frequently. Curious what others prefer and their reasons why. Please offer your opinions.

Yes, the former. ?did you want us to choose between the two groups of pictures that you posted and explain why we prefer one of those two groups, or were you inviting others to share pics of any style(s) out there in the world that they personally like?
I think everyone is assuming the former, but for some reason i initially understood the latter and was excited to photo-bomb with a bunch of maples
That is something great to consider. Great points!Top row they are all styled like oaks, regardless of their species.
Bottom row they are all styled more naturally as "general deciduous".
They ALL seem to focus overmuch on foliage ramification (to me) versus styling clusters of foliage. You wouldn't be able to view any of these trees with leaves... they would all look like mops. I know deciduous are supposed to look best with bare branches so you can see the branch structure... but these trees seem to emphasize ramification above all else.
I prefer to enjoy four season of deciduous trees - with a different look each season.
Yes, the former. ?
Might your taste be in literati style?in that case, and if personal taste if what you're after:
preference: neither
reason: 1) trunks are too massive for my taste; 2) the dense ramification is not at all interesting to me
Might your taste be in literati style?
Me tooi initially understood the latter
I prefer the bottom 3. I like to be able to see the architecture rather than just a canopy, but they're all great trees. Personal preference is like colors: is one better than another? There are many situations, and in each we would have different preferences. We like red here and blue there and green somewhere else.I love these different styles, and I think about them frequently.
