Nice indeed...welcome to the IBC gallery! I saw a few trees while in Vietnam in 2007.

Nice tree.

How do you get the leaves to reduce?

Do you have a problems with yellowing?

Is this a single or double flowered variety?

We grow these in Florida.

Wow. That's a special composition. Good work.

Hi Invinh,
Very nice indeed, I love this material it is great to work with.

Hi Vinh,

Is it a small leave wrightia?

Budi

budi has a very nice n famous stilt rooted wrightia slurps*

very nice, but I believe it would look better in a small pot.

Nice composition. Do you have any other photos?

Regards.

A very nice little composition, but I can't figure out why the fingers look so odd. It almost looks like they have been photoshopped in.

Could it be because it looks like part of the little finger is in front of the pot?

Good eye Chris!

it's hard to say whether this has been 'shopped or not. The wire seems to be in-scale in relation to the tree and fingers. If the composition were considerably larger, the large wire on the branch would be insanely thick. What has me perplexed is the distortion of the thumb. The pinky isn't a problem - depending on the lighting of course. The shadows are also believable, as are the scale of the texture of the moss and rock.

I'm leaning towards some sort of perspective problem with the camera's lens due to subject proximity rather than being convinced of this being photoshopped. But that's *leaning*, not *convinced*. ;-)

Still wonderful!

Photoshop Forensic Science? Could turn into a new made-for-TV series!

i think chris is right

Im gonna go with photoshopped

Hi all,

I've already saw it was fake, but I was afraid of been rude on talking about it.

There are other "strange" things on this photo.

[img][/img]

I and II - The way this leaves are cropped;
III - The difference on the background;
IV - As shown, the invasive finger;
V - The distortion, shadow absence and bad fusion of the thumb;
VI - The distorted base of the pot.

As well the diference of colour, the bad focus on the hand... blah, blah, blah...

The picture doesn't have the "Camera Data" so the file was "created".

Sorry for bothering, but I think it's not fair.
Regards.

Bon:Sai SI?

Next investigation - a Quince-y. I think I might have shown my age there

Bonsai forensics, I am still embarrassed I didn't pick it up the first wave even though I knew something was 'fishy', other than that tiny little man or woman....lol's.

So, in view of the policies of this forum, is this considered "making use of artistic freedom", or some other expression more often used in the world of courtrooms?

If anyone's still not convinced after reading Fernando's post, I just spotted some duplicate leaves. I've marked the most obvious ones:



So now I have to wonder at Invinh's motives in posting it without mentioning that it was an altered photo. Was it intended as a joke? A demonstration of his photoshopping skills? A test to see if he could fool everyone?

Cliff .. an excellent eye! ..and you missed one. The leaf circled in blue is also a duplicate - same notch on the upper left and same highlights at the tip - but perhaps most telling is the obvious area where it's been "rubber stamped" on the right, pointed out by the red marking.



I don't get the point of the original post either. Now I'm 100% convinced this is 'shopped. Next!

Kindest~
