British Shohin Association Annual Show 2012 photos and movie

I have just returned home for the BSA Show at Willowbog... and what a show. The Quality of display and the excellence of the trees is the best we have ever seen in one show in the UK. here is a small selection of my photos. My Full report and the movie can be seen Here

First Fiona's wonderful award winning display

Mark & Ritta.....beautiful ! ( as always ) And how can someone who rides her bike all over Scotland have enough time to create trees like that ?? Very, very nice Fiona !!

A really beautiful Acer

Great job Fiona and the Coopers - excellent trees and presentation.

Mark and Ritta won Best Shohin Composition award. I was awarded a Certificate of Merit in the same category, as was fellow IBCer Les S.



If anyone's feeling handy with some photoshopping tonight, could they eliminate that light socket under the first shelf for me please.

hi everyone,
what a great day, thouroughly enjoyed it and also meeting up with lots of fellow ibc'ers. It was quite funny that after a day of inspiring tiny little trees I ended up squeezing the largest piece of material I've ever bought into the car, laying on its side with the seats down luckily a white beech group made it safely back to Cornwall for a total restyle

Here you go Fiona, i took the nails out of the wood, and the upright out etc too



cheers Marcus

Bob B and Fiona.

The coffee mug says it all .......

Hi Mark and Rita

Congratulations on your Fantastic Award "True the Mug" NOT YOU MARK say its all

I wonder since I am 5ft 4 1/2 " would I qualify for a " SMALL BUT PERFECTLY FORMED " Mug or I reckon just the MUG would probably some ME up[b]

Take Care

I wholeheartedly agree with Tony, a wonderful Show and I feel fill privileged to have played a very small part. It seems to get better year on year and I think that the addition of the “Trees in Progress” section was genius.

Congratulations to all the Winners but also to the BSA, Trev & other Trev the auctioneers, and of course Peter & Jean Snart for making us feel so at home! Without their hard work behind the scenes this sort of event couldn’t happen. Here’s to many more
