Some photos I took, but nowhere near comprehensive of all the cool stuff. I could upload the rest later if you'd like.

By the way, anyone have recommendations for a bonsai club near New York City? There's several in NJ/CT within an hours drive, so I'm trying to figure out which one would be good for a beginner

Thanks for the pics...
I am relatively new as well and live in Rockland County (lower Hudson Valley) and just recently started to attend Yama Ki Bonsai Society http://www.yamakibonsai.org/ . They have great workshops, guests, demos and vendors from what I can tell from my initial interactions. I have also wanted to check out the Bergen Bonsai Society http://www.bergenbonsai.com/ as I have heard some good things about them as well. Good luck and let us know if you find a nice "home" club.

It was nice, some of the best trees I've seen were in the vendors section. Some very nice pots and stands.

Did you see the sweet little twisted Junis, that Bill had ?

If you check the Mid Atlantic website, if not already there, there will be club contact info available.
Yama Ki, and there is also a club in New Haven.
