seldom seen styles

[BigBill]

one of the styles I havent seen much of besides when I was in Japan is raft style. Supposed to look like the tree fell over, blown over and the branches continue to grow upwards. Basically looking like several smaller trees.

I saw several of these while in Japan and have never seen one in the US at any of the bonsai shops.

Most websites explain what it is but dont have any pics of real trees. A few have drawlings explaining it.

Any one have any of this style willing to post picks? I was debating on trying this with one of my "sticks in a pot"

Any one else have any seldom seen styling they want to share or show pics of I would be greatly interested, I enjoy an informal upright but sometimes I like to see different stuff.

I really like clump style, but people seldom post pictures of them. I like them, because they look very natural to me.
