one year of my Hornbeam

Hi all friends,
This is yamadori tree and collected about 10 years ago. My work on it started in autumn 2009. Here is small evolution of this carpinus betulus.
Hornbeam has more mistakes (i´m happy), but I will try to repair in the future. Thankx for every opinions.

and today i preparing for a Bonsai-kai show on this weekend

Very nice work Milan.
Are you planing to develope the first branches on both sides to a more dominant one?
Im asking onyl bcs. what is possible to see from the picture this branches are one spot which catches the atention of the viewer compared to the stronger branches over it.

Very good Milan. As Roland says, some extention growth on those lower branches would be good. Great progression and patience anyway.

thanx,
First right branch has to thicken and that´s my goal. First left branch is running back perfectly and will be framing depth, the back branch.
This carpinus has more Fronts, there is one of them,but must be with some tilt to the right. Not must be, may be

Looking forward to see this one personally on weekend! I think we should play a bit with planting angle. Little dancing :-) Obeisance :-D!
