[IBC] '03 award programs
Thanks Alan. I'm aware of all this and my point was that there
is no contest/evaluation available to U.S. collectors, besides the Japanese sponsored WBC, where a fine bonsai may be judged unless it has been owned by the same person for 3-5 years and that person (no other) has maintained it. Yes, I or another may hold our own judged exhibit where the entry criteria aren't ridiculous, but the fact that our national organizations want no part of that is simply laughable. Maybe the Bonsai Today family (Asia and Europe and USA, including BTO) should get together and sponsor a competition of this type -- either photographic like these three, or on the ground a part of some major bonsai get-together -- like there's probably time to plan it for the big gathering in Washington DC in 2005.
