It's not that often you see a full grown man sitting in a bonsai tree (why doesn't the tree fall over?). The caption and the photo are from BCI magazine.
Marc Noelanders is an accomplished bonsai artist, though he’s probably best know for his annual Noelanders Trophy Bonsai Exhibition. We’ve featured trees from the Exhibition numerous times over the years, though I can’t find any of Marc’s that we’ve shown. I’d like to redress the situation, but too much to do today, so we’ll settle for the mind stopping photos above. Some other time we’ll do the research and show you some more of Marc’s bonsai.
Though the tree at the top of the post (with and without Marc) is the real show stopper, this one isn't half bad either. It's the tree that appears on the cover of the 10th Noelanders Trophy book. I couldn't find any information on the variety, the artist or the photographer.
This photo is from Bonsai Focus. Here's their caption: "One of the best shows in Europe, The Noelanders Trophy, initiated by Marc Noelanders. Held every year in January, Heusden Zolder Belgium . Photo's: Willy Evenepoel."
