Slingshot available for hire !
Wow,
I'll be brave again and go first.  (Matt: can we have a trembling in fear smilie please ? )There was a good discussion on a "slingshot" tree recently and this one certainly fits the bill. I am pressed for time today, but would quickly get rid of that smaller arm and work on a more literati look with this tree. The pot is also way too small and has the effect of making the whole composition look planted too high. Hopefully someone will do a "virtual" along the lines I'm thinking.  Cheers, Ian. |

to get rid of the slingshot look I would get rid of the larger branch to the right, this would also give the tree a better taper.

Hey, I thought I'd seen it before and Matt said we wouldn't know any of the owners. (Cry) Sorry pootsie.
He must be running short of "iffy" trees - I'll have a look through some of mine and send him some on (Smile) N.B.Smilies not working for some reason? Ian |
