New Material
I picked up this ficus salicifolia/nerifolia monday. I followed the advice of my teacher and hacked away at it so the new growth will be ready for the winter, so pretty much I am done with this tree for the year. Now the question is which trunk to cut off. There are infact six trunks, one hidden.
Also, what does everyone think of this material? Close picture-

I have some cleaning out to do with the crossing roots, I will do that next year. But isn't that a great nebari?

I enhanced the farther back picture because it was too dark. I hope this helps you get a better idea-

It's easy - cut off the trunk you can't see. (I still can't see it)

A messy picture showing every branch. I think I want to cut out the smaller branch in front since the one that is hidden in is the largest branch.
As you can see the tree is pretty lonely on my new bench. I now need to save up for some more good material to put on there.

And after editing the farther back picture you can see they are right in front of eachother and the 2-D image hides the larger one-

Sorry, are you saying 4 is blocking 3? I can barely see any trunks at all with all the red loops. I figure there is some point to the numbering?
Regards, Matt

4 is blocking 5. I think I will take out 4. 5 in the last picture is the only one I circled. 4 is right below it, causing it to look like it is the same trunk.
