Redpine,

I believe that I mentioned this in my comments and I still feel it holds true.
Detailed wiring of the foliage would have greatly improved this entry.

You did a remarkable job with the stock and brought out a very presentable bonsai but you stopped where most entries did, at the final touches.

Detail wiring is a pain in the butt to be sure, the foliage is tender, the wire is thin, and the work is tedious. But in order to present the best possible image, detail wiring is almost mandatory.

You should be proud of your entry, you did a fine job and made some great decisions on this.
