    The Rain was great, trees, and water are meant to be, they kinda go trunk and limb, if you know what i mean!! LOL!! I hope I live long enough to get a maple bonsai like these, such and amazing and beautiful tree, and I enjoy seeing each one of your masterpieces!! I couldn't imagine, I rescued a Ficus that someone was just going to let freeze, I bought it home a few years ago, just topped it this year, after letting it bounce back from the shock it had a few years ago. It not a bonsai, Like ten trunks corkscrewed upward, to a canopy that is 6 to 7 feet tall, and three to four feet canopy. I couldn't imagine being able to own a bonsai such as the beautiful trees you are able to achieve in such an amazing display of beauty!!

    Thanks Peter. We don't get bored because I have only 5 maples and a couple of maple cuttings growing, so have only limited scope to learn or develop 'maple' technique. Watching you work on your trees is the other way to gain knowledge and a bit of confidence in the techniques for progressing my own trees. I've learned more watching these videos than I ever learned from books or the bonsai courses I took 20 years ago. Repetition reinforces knowledge. I will add to the requests to keep the videos coming. We also need some sort of warning - the term 'Gatekeepers' almost caused my keyboard to be covered in coffee. Thanks again.
