2 Most Likely Shohin Junipers

Great to see this tree again. This is the one we discussed a few months back isn't it? It was one of my favorite pre bonsai material that I have seen. Loved it then and even more now.

Missed these the first go around Yenling, really nice finds! I love what you've done here, the deadwood is incredible and you've done a good job highlighting this feature.

Update-Here's my little Kifu size tree-not Shohin that I showed at BIB. Posted these on FB and my blog already. A good buddy of mine now owns the other Juniper in the first post. It was great to see a few fellow B nut members at the show including-Eric S, Adair and Andrew R!

dead wood looks like a triceratops skull

Cool tree!
I would like too see the right lower branch grafted mid way on the trunk instead of coming out of the same point of the apex.

Thanks @GGB I agree looks like some type of skull, I can see the triceratops. Thanks @barrosinc

I thought dinosaur skull too!

Really nice tree! For some reason I want to cut off the very lowest branch and pad on the left side. I feel like with how powerful the trunk is on the left side you could really push the foliage more assymetrical, to the right, and the tree will still look balanced.
