The right lower branch has not been removed right now for overall tree appearance, the foliage needs time to develop in other parts of the tree before removing.

Also leaving more branching on the tree increases its general energy and work is completed faster.

Once all the other branches are complete the stone should be the focal point and the right lower branch crosses in front of the stone, there is a rear branch behind the stone which will give visual depth.
Thanks,

QUOTE=hansvanmeer]Nice job Shane, but may i ask what made you deside to remove that right branche, is it for overall tree apperance or is it don to show a better vieuw on the stone? I am just curious!
