Book review
The British Shohin Association has published its first book,
"The BSA 4th exhibition 2009". Exhibition books have
two good purposes among others. One is to document history, and
another is to show the art to others than the ones who managed
to be part of the show. An exhibition book demands good quality
pictures as well as good quality items displayed. Both is
present in this book of the 4th BSA exhibition.

Summer is here
It is time to enjoy the summer flowering
Shohin. Be aware of the sun and drying winds, and place your
Shohin and smalle Mame in a semishaded place to avoid drying
out the soil too fast. I am still organizing my garden, and at
the moment establishing a Tokonoma in a side building. When
finished pictures will be published. Have a nice summer with
your bonsai.

 AGM
2009 at the Danish Bonsai Society
New Chairman is Morten Albek
The annual meeting in the Danish Bonsai Society took place in
the second weekend of May in Farum, Copenhagen. National
demonstrators shown their skills to the audience, and was
supported by moderators, online sketches and video at a big
screen. A new national Bonsai School was presented during the
event, hopefully succeeding starting up a program following
students and ongoing slow work at their bonsai chosen, in the
spirit of the “Kawabe School”. Mr. Johnny Eslykke runs the
school, with support of national well known and skilled
teachers, who will teach and support the student’s over a
period of one year so far.
At the AGM in May the Danish Bonsai Society members elected
Morten Albek as new Chairman. I also received a runners up
prize together with a EBA merit award for a Shohin display with
Shimpaku Juniper, Cotoneaster and Japanese Maple.
Regards, Morten Albek
