AusBonsai

Hello Does anyone have before and after pics of the workshop trees from the weekend? I was there and saw the material half way through transformation and the meterial was pretty good.

I am looking at you BB.

I managed a few,

this was one of Grant Bowies workshops, in my opinion the absolute standout of the morning. (I did not see the afternoon.)

I believe a member of Ausbonsai owns that cotoneaster. He worked on it at the carving workshop that skippy held for members here. It will make a very nice tree someday.

Hi all,

The quality of the workshop trees was very high this year. It was a delight to work on them and there were a lot of pines (showing maturity of the stock and owners and bonsai in general)and only one very young juniper; so all in all a good result.

There were two other pines that I really liked. One that we cut off only one lower branch and compressed the rest; the other we cut off 90% and styled the rest.

I had to leave to make the long drive home, I missed the final result of the others but know which you are referring to.
Surely somebody got some photo's (please)
