This bonsai shows a sense of dignity only a black pine can muster with its thick twisting trunk turning several times as it rises. The branches have been arranged in an orderly sequence going down from its canopy. However, the bottom right branch layer has been tailored to jolt far out, completing the overall shape of the tree by complimenting its curving trunk. This bonsai was named by a public vote on February 8th, 2015.
