Hi everyone, my name is Max and i'm 33 years old.
This is my first post here. Hope it's okay that i'm not from aus, just wanted to expand my bonsai horizon a little bit and get some other opinions on my trees. I've been doing Bonsai since 2012 but neglegted my hobby for 4-5 years. This spring i got infected with bonsaimania again.
I'd like some opinions on my Ulmus pumila, height is 21 cm, so not exactly shohin under japanese standards but still a small tree.
Greetings maxImageImage

If it was mine I would remove the second trunk on the left

Hello Max. Nice tree :yes: If it were mine I would try to elevate the crown a bit, so removing the lowest branch for a start. And work on ramification I guess?

G’day Max, welcome.

Caveat: There are others with a heap more knowledge than I around these parts... probably including yourself Image.

Cool tree I reckon. I get where Treeman is coming at with the left branch - albeit I am not so bold - I would remove the harsh straight part- which stands out in a tree of movement ... perhaps cut at the second branch coming off the left. Rough image but like below.
