Hello! My name is Peter Svetoslavov. I am from Bulgaria. I write here for the first time and will ask you for advice and criticism for this Oak :

Re: Quercus - I need to advise
Hello Peter, welcome to our forum. You oak is beautiful it is obviously a collected tree judging by the very old bark. The only comment I could make is that the second branch on the left is way too long and begins with a very straight section. Given the beautiful curved trunk-line it would be better if the branches followed the same pattern.
Regards from Craig

I'm jealous

Re: Quercus - I need to advise
Jeez Peter that is pretty under the snow 
I was looking at photos from Walter Palls garden inder a foot of snow today and thought, Hmm 30 degrees here today and I am happy
Snow looks pretty, but bloody hard to rida bike in it
Next repot, I would tilt to the left a little. Bring the apex a little more over the base and to accentuate the angle out of the pot some more

Petra, this is picture of the tree in winter of 2009. The ugly man beside the tree it's me. 
kcpoole, tomorrow I will take some pictures on tilted tree.
Ozmad, This tree is too flat on left and right at this time. On next picture you will see the tree on another side. This tree is in very early stage of development.
P.S. I apologize for my bad english
