A fantastic job as you got us used too!

Congratulations

Very nice Pavel! This client must be very happy.

Wow. Both great.

Great work again Pavel. Can't quite work out whats going on with the bottom left branch on the Pine. Doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the tree.

Absolutly fantastic job Pavel as always

Pavel.

You must enjoy life as it is!
Sharing them images witch go true your hands (read trees) how nice!

@Will (hahaha wats in words ) cutting of would do the pine good....i'd say for now gone is relay gone.
i am at that stage,...still...


grtz machiel!

Hello Pavel. with the Larch, I would consider losing the large branch on the left. It lacks the character the rest of the tree exhibits and is out of scale. Lovely tree though.

Hi Faisal, Joao, Antonio, Velodog, Will, Hombre, Machiel.

Thank you all for your very nice comments. I'm happy.

re:Will - Yes, I agree with the left lower pine branches. Is too strong in the future will probably be removed.

In Larch but remains. I like the extended arm. In the next idle period will be a movement, is too flat. The Larch is a very impressive tree.

Hi all

Today I worked on the restyling of Larch. The owner is my client. I think the tree is a step forward.

just a thought.......

You have worked some very nice trees!! On the last larch my opion only I would shorten the left bottom branch some it looks a little longto me...no matter you did a good job...take care john

@peter, without that branch there i find the tree has a large void and the balance in it is gone, i looked at it and it looked like the tree was almost ready to fall over, i agree the branch needs to be reduced or a new one grown in its place, but something has to be in that spot... just my input

Hi Peter

thank you for your nice the virtual. But the branch still remains.
Pavel

Hi John

Dear Pavel

The larch is very beautiful !!
I like it with the long branch to the left.
Also like it in a shallow pot .

You style is getting stronger and stronger , super !!
A smile and hug for You
Kind regards

Hi
If you intend to keep the long branch on the left as a suggestion could you not bring some movement into it.

Bravo, Pavel!

I do like the branch to the left but I second the above quotation:

Perhaps it is too straight I could say....

As always, a very great job Pavel.

The branch can be replaced by the other growing out of the same spot. There are at least three branches. That´s too much. It can damage such a beautiful (and non-straight ) trunk.

Thank you all for yours nice coment and compliments.
The tree will still work. Long left branch of the tree remains. I think it is very significant and interesting. Yes, you will need to highlight the movement. In this we agree with the owner. But it again next time.

Hi all

New pot and foto today.

I also agree. The branch should stay.

hi, with the larch i also think the branch should stay - but it is too flat and too straight - the trunk has graceful movement - the branch needs the same movement to convince the viewer that both are part of the same tree, until then it is a mixture of nature (the trunk), and man made (the branch)

the pine is just the client being cruel, or testing you !! the trunk has the bulges and straight sections with no taper -if i didnt plant it in the garden i would look to reduce the height a lot, using one of the lower branches as an apex curving over, then, with 5-6 years of growing the foliage it will be a better looking tree. the bottom branch is not pleasing to the eye though - a part of it goes straight up and another part looks to cross the back of the trunk, but it was a difficult tree to try and make a bonsai image from - well done and very nice drawing !

Both trees are magnificent! .. I especially love the pine.. a beautiful elegant, yet strong trunk..

As far as shortening or removing branches on the Larch.. Although it is outstanding the way it is. I think that it might not be about the branches, but perhaps the planting angle. I hope you don't mind, but I did a virt with the tree tilted slightly and the thick branch reduced just a little bit. I really don't know if it makes the tree any better, but it is different.As I said earlier, the tree is already outstanding.. What do you think?
