This 0ne is getting there Leigh

The top looks like it has extended too far and the branching underneath the foliage looks like it is all long and lankey. bit hard to tell until it is bare of leaves

I would reduce the height to give it an overall rounded silhouette. Depending on the internal structure you may have to cut back hard to gain taper in the branching to mach the trunk, and to build ramification

If you dont want it I will have it? How much?
