Juniper #2 has a striking trunk. At this point in its development I think the foliage is overwhelmed. I softened the line by placing foliage in front of the deadwood. I also thinned a jin on the right. And I filled out the foliage on the right side (wouldn't be much of a challenge if it were as easy in life as it is in photoshop).
Thanks for posting this fine tree.
Nice save and beautiful tree! Is there a reason for selecting the grow stones over pumice?
