Another customer tree that has undergone needle work, candle selection and re-setting of the pads (tenaoshi). Unfortunately I didn’t realise the camera was in black and white mode for the after picture but you can see the results fairly well despite the lack of colour.
Before, looking bushy and healthy after a season of good growth.
A film noir look at this bunjin tree after the work.
Not a dramatic change, merely some minor tweaks and re-setting of some candles that grew out of the silhouette. Over all a very nice tree that is ready for another year of development.

Good job with this tree, looks awesome with the noir shot. I’m going to take some photos of my trees like this to see how they look 🙂
