GSBF North Collection
I took a handful or more pics of some very nice trees. I went to the trouble of editing them so they'd fit here size-wise and I had every intention of posting pics of the trees I saw, but I have a nagging recollection of them having some restriction on pictures taken and their being used elsewhere. I believe the stipulation was reserved for keeping the pictures from being used commercially but I just wanted to make sure. Do any of you know if it'd be ok to post these pictures?
Waiting patiently, Wayne F.

IMHO, most would consider this to be non-commercial use, however a reassuring email from someone associated with GSBF would be nice.
 There are already some pics from GSBF on another site as well as pics from a GSBF site that states "Feel free to copy any you want" Proper credit to the collection is always a good idea. |

Wayne, I'm sure that no one involved with GSBF would object to you posting pictures of the collection, especially if you give credit.
I hope you enjoyed your visit to the collection. Mike

The pics follow. I hope others will ID these trees and their owners. Very inspiring.
"Now I can see why you dont really think you have many trees that are bonsai," says the wife. <edit> 25566: JBP was right at the entrance. This is a view from behind 25568: Shohin Juniper cascade. 25569: Immediately identifiable as Mike Page's boxwood. 25570: Bonsai Society of San Fran's logo tree 25571: Shohin (smaller than the above shohin) juniper.

A few more.
edit: 25572-4: The entry way JBP from a few angles. 25575: Might be John Naka's Juniper? 25576: Impressive Trident Maple. 25577: Harry Hirao's Juniper?

Should be the last few.
25578: Not sure, and the foliage isn't easily differentiated from the background, still and impressive trunk though. 25579-80: Views from the center of the garden. 25581: What you see right before you go into the garden. The tree stood 3.5-4 ft tall.

Its the Golden State Bonsai Federation. The North Collection as best as I can tell is named after John North, as opposed to its relation to the rest of California. They have about 100 trees, 50 of which are on display at a time. One gotcha: they're open Wed-Fri 11-3. I showed up monday morning and had to come back later.

#25574 is a tree that belonged to Mas Imazumi, restyled in Bonsai Today a while back by Boon Manakitivipart. It's a fantastic collected specimen, truly a masterpiece.
#25576 was also featured in Bonsai Today and worked on by Boon, but at that time it had a second trunk rising from the large nebari. I have wondered about the wisdom of that removal, as now the tree is just another trident maple.
