Thanks man! Glad you posted them.

I'm jealous... for never having been there, and for not possessing any tree like that

what no ficus ginseng?

Yes, there is inspiration out there, i must keep plugging along.

thanks

Simplysaid: Don't worry. Showing good trees is always a pleasure. Personally, my main concern with many pictures is more in the "I have taken 50 pictures of this one tree and I am showing all" Next time, perhaps make a new topic though

I think my favorite from Bonsai Cassovia is the hornbeam. Impressive beast.

And I like to see that the current European trend to go for the fattest trunk is not replicated in Kyoto gardens. Nice.

AUK: It was a life long dream to travel to Japan. Unfortunately I didn't take to many pictures. But the 15 days was incredible. I have tons of great stories.
Samantha: I don't recall seeing one ficus

so the remaining part of my comment didn't post for some reason. But as I was saying..
Samantha: Next time I'm in Kyoto, I will mention tot hem that they need more Ficus.

Leatherback: I was considering making a new post but thought I'd follow the conversation. I have some pictures from a flower show I went to and will post them. Thanks

I get very inspired and motivated by seeing the dedication it takes to create such incredible Bonsai.
