Corin, you and Peter Chan are the only ones I watch on youtube. You two have helped me tremendously in my hobby. You are a true artist with a great sense of scale and proportion without a hint of being pretentious. Thank you for your efforts and I wish you all the success you deserve.

Fantastic work saving these Blue Cedars. Loved the manner you changed the structure of the trees and I can see they will grow into beautiful bonsai specimens. A very good lecture especially removing all the top useless soil and mess, opening up the top and keeping the roots undisturbed, by doing this, the tree will not be into too much shock. I prefer the bigger specimens they are more resilient to getting hard pruned. The video was most enjoyable and encouraging to also try our hand. I would like to see a professional Bonsai Grower close should I loose nerve he/she can rescue my attempt, it must e quite daunting giving it a go for the first time.

I like it when they do it for the long term health and growth and styling of the tree.. and can still look cool and have a general bonsai look. But don't much like the trend of all the "magic demos" of finding a really nice prebonsai stock...often collected or grown and trained for bonsai.... and getting some big shot to come in and transform it into a "finished" tree in an hour or whatever. And do everything to it that should be done slowly over many many years even all the jinning and carving and lime sulphering etc so as to get there before and after shots for their website or whatever. Basically with the goal of showing off and making themselves look good and their profile... not the tree. And beginners see and think that's normal and mimick it. But don't tell them that they've just killed that nice tree and fine potential bonsai stock and that the vast majority of those are sacrifice trees that are discarded after. Idk just don't seem right to me. This guy seems to do it pretty good though .
