I live in a suburb in the midwest USA, and I was wondering if I'm not the only person with this particular bonsai inspiration point. In my area of the world, we don't have cliffs, not too much wind-sweptness, or ancient forests.
However, we do have very interesting trees that have been cut back in fascinating (sometimes dumb) ways due to power lines or away from house roofs. Some have big holes in the middle of the branching, others bend away from the power lines and the branches flow out from there,, or lean over the street, looking a little dangerous. This gives me some hope that these things could be pretty resilient even if I do cut the wrong branch off or if the tree gets wired a little off kilter.
Does anyone else derive inspiration in this or other interesting ways?
