Time kept getting away from me to post photos from the LSBF (Lone Star Bonsai Federation - the Texas state Convention) show in Dallas this year, but as Dario had told me.. better late than never! I thought Dallas did a fantastic job with the show and the convention. Guest speakers were Ryan Neil, Kathy Shaner and Michael Hagedorn, and I think everyone went away energized and ready to create! Here are some photos I took at the exhibit.

Best In Show and Best Conifer, voted by the visiting artists, Western Juniper (Juniperus occidentalis)

Best Tropical and People's Choice winner Buttonwood (Conocarpus erectus)

Best Native winner Ashe Juniper (Juniperus ashii)

..the tables were set too close together for me to get a better photo of this tree, it was too big

Best Deciduous winner Ginkgo biloba

Some details from the Ginkgo.. I personally loved the prehistoric display with petrified redwood cones:

.. and Archaeopteryx drawing in the scroll by the artist's daughter:
