bonsaiTALK Community - View Single Post - Photo REQ: Deadwood on Real trees

Thank's for the picture, that is exactly the type of thing I'm looking for.

I'm personally not a 'massive' user of deadwood on my bonsai but I take the view that it 'has it's place in bonsai' just as it does in nature and to exclude it as an option when designing a bonsai is limiting.

Hopefully by showing the club members more natural trees with deadwood they will be more accomodating when judging a tree which has deadwood as part of the design.
