According to working with yamadori-material or container-conifers from a garden-center, I have always been thought, that the assumption "finding the smallest tree" (within in the material) would give me a hint to a good first styling-result.
Well in this particular case my assumption was defenitly wrong. A Chamacyparis (no matter what kind or cultivar) would never "put" the leader-shoot down, to form a, what bonsai-people would call a "pad".
I signed the weak points with drawn arrows in the posting-image.
Therefore, I will cancel my former idea, in favour of a more upright design.
The following days I will post the result of my attempt for a more natural design.
