Re: TALL CALIFORNIA JUNIPER
That's some beautiful movement. Do you have any photos of the tree's progression?

Mike, looking good. Your photo needs something for scale. Big tree/pot.
You REALLY use some big aggregate! It makes the photo look like a shohin!
I would love to see this in a show. Is it going to the Cow Palace?

Wow one of the best bonsai I've seen( to my eyes at least ). I love unique deadwood bonsai. I do agree with the foliage though little work and it'll look super old

Hi Mike,
I love your Juniper. The foliage pads do need layers to enhance the age. You have your flat pads style; I tend to make curvy contrived branches. Its part of the learning curve I think. Most bonsai people tend to favor a styling pattern. Some are better at it than others. I'm trying tobecome more naturalistic in my work.
The glaze on your (Dale's) pot looks like a desert. Perfect for your tree! I like the contrast of bark to deadwood!
Best, Todd

Re: TALL CALIFORNIA JUNIPER
Great trunk movement. But Dale is right - the tree needs some sort of a reference point to give an indication of its true size. It wasn't until I saw it on another site that I realised it wasn't a chuhin or shohin and that's to its detriment. And curiously, somehow, the foliage looks less "flat" when you consider that this tree is 41" in height, although I too (personal opinion only) would prefer more in the way of defined pads.
