"This process was carried over the course of a year"
The dedication of this man
That’s just bonsai 101
Had no idea it took so long to give bonsai trees a makeover 😵💫😵💫
@@JakeFactual Seems it takes long to anything.
I actually was impressed by the rapid growth.
It's a patience sport overall
"why doesn't he release more videos?" haha
@@nicholasdyne is possible with many plants and much work, but i'm guessing this is not what he wants... Seems to me he wants to share his art, at the pace it happens.
And when the world needed him most, he returned
=> The Bonsai-Avatar (aka: The Bavatar)
What?
lol i wanted to comment the same thing
@@michaeldickens7493 Inside joke...You must have watched "Avatar- The Last Airbender" to get the joke...
Massage sexy from Indonesia
This was a masterpiece, how soothing
Please don’t stop making these videos. You’re editing skills are incredible.
I feel like this channel is secretly sitting on years of footage of many trees and is preparing to blow our minds like never before. All round this was an AMAZING video.
I think it's more like it started as a lockdown project and now we get to see what comes out of it.
I hope so, but doesn’t appear to be uploading anymore :-(
This man not only knows his bonsai, he also draws beautifully, produces great quality videos and seems like a great dad.
Seems like an all around high-quality human. I really love this channel.
@@questtttttttt Yeah i bet you both wish you was a high-quality human.
@@doomhead2332 I am. There are many ways to be a person of quality. Being rude to random people on the internet is not one of them.
@@questtttttttt i believe it actually lowers your quality in some circles
Talents can Creates Magic living things😍
The sheer sense of peace and comfort I feel from this video is seriously indescribable. My anxiety level went from a 9 to 0. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift❤
He has 5 other videos as well. Each is excellent. I have been doing bonsai for over 40 years but his skills amaze me..
You are a true artist. A horticultural artist, a digital artist, and a parental artist.
The production on these is always mind blowing. And his confidence while sculpting the dead wood is insane i could never. Cant wait to see more!!
This guy is changing the game with the quality of these videos! I was scared after the first one it would be a one off but here we are again.
same here
yeah same
Absolutely
Lol
Agree is amazing
Trust me when i say this. I watched every bonsai video and channel that there is on youtube. The first book i ever read as a child was a bonsai book so i know what to look for in bonsai design. You are the best here. Your designs, your concepts, your sensitivity, the quality of your videos, the peacefulness and thoughtfulness that comes from it, it’s just a joy to watch. Please make more. Please.
I truly appreciate the editing that went into this video, particularly around the 9 minute mark when each clipping is performed to the rhythm.
hello, yes. im going to need more videos. thanks
i feel like i should have a prescription to watch these calming af videos
Lol same
Yes I agree, but sadly we might have to wait four months again
Hello. Ok .you're welcome
Excuse me sir, this is macdonalds drive thru
Him and his Daughter! My heart, it can't take how adorable they are
When you started to put the moss on I was so disappointed that your wee girl didn't collect it with you this time...but then, there she was, freeing the caterpillar. Your bonsai is incredible but the interactions with your daughter make these videos stand out. You two tell a story together. Looks like we all want to hear and see more.
Thanks Susan. That's my little nephew, I'll try to include him more!
when he got that pebble outta there, i was like, “oh, yeah, get that pebble outta there”
Grammar though?
😂
@@loturzelrestaurant no, it’s what we were like..
@@nickfchrist I dont think you got my comment?
?
@@nickfchrist Again: Grammar?
YES, HE'S BACK
Hope he keeps them coming! These videos are such high quality.
@@MrDSimba Totally agree, bonsai takes time tho!
@@Panotxa22 Yeah honestly I was surprised to see another video so soon! I wonder how many restorations he has going at a time?
@@MrDSimba Yeah, really excited to see everything he's done!
An artist
Doing great bonsai
High quality production
And a fucking great dad
Absolute madlad
Love that reply! Well Done!
The production is A+, love the micro lens shots. (and Dad scenes are the cherry on top)
I found your first video just after it was posted and was very disappointed to learn that it was your only video at the time. I’ve just come across the two newest ones (this one and the one just posted) and can’t even begin to tell you how happy I am that you’ve continued the series.
Thank you so much! Please keep them coming
The amount of time, patience, and fine details that it took makes this video worth a million dollars.
I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but I already know it's gonna be great.
My ad hasn’t finished yet and the video already has a like! 😁
You have to watch the 1st content!! Hihi
I just watched the 2 videos. Trees are beautiful! The mini trees can even grow fruit...
Seeing this amount of care and dedication to work with the tree... It's truly magnificent.
Сare? I hope someone will take care of you too...
@@Gavabanga yep, this looks more like torture than care.
Imagine getting skinned alive half your arm just for the lolz
@@rronaldreagan no, not torture at all. Trees and plants in general have no sense of feeling. They lack a central nervous system. In Nature trees can lose branches and bark in storms or things falling on them. He is simply mimicking that. The wire is only left on for a year or so and then removed. Does not harm the tree.
@@danielkosta3134 they might not feel the pain but it certainly affects trees.
Ive pruned quite a few trews and bushes nd if you do too much at a time it shocks the plant.
In any case its just not for me this "hobby"
@@danielkosta3134 you're wrong. Have you ever wondered what pain is? Pain is a signal of damage or potential damage. Plant life does not have the same nerve endings as humans, but they also have signals of damage. And this is a very strange concern, to cripple a living organism pretending that you love it ... sometimes it seems to me that people do not know what love and care are ...
“You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it. You say you love sun, but you seek shelter when it is shining. You say you love wind, but when it comes you close your windows. So that's why I'm scared when you say you love me.” Bob Marley

Damn, these videos are top-notch.
Hope to see more!
This is great how you go through the season. I wish a lot more bonsai channels were as patient with their videos as they are with their plants.
The production quality of this video makes it feels like a paid masterclass
I mean the bonsai work is obviously amazing..but can we talk about the dedication to the production value?! Huge fan and cannot wait for future uploads. The only channel I will ever have notifications turned on!!
Production quality is incredible but hopefully it doesn't always take 4 months for a new video.
@@questtttttttt I respect the Process. I'm sure he is very dedicated to the quality of his videos and production value. Which means we won't see heavy dumps of videos but outstanding quality videos that will eventually create an amazing library of videos in the future. It will seem long to us because we are here in the beginning but the wait will definitely be worth it!
Thanks PNW Bonsai, and good luck with the new Sigma lens!
@@BonsaiReleaf !!! Thanks brother!!
This is not just a bonsai tree THIS IS AN ART ❤️
I haven't discussed the bonsai technique yet, especially the camera, transmission and editing techniques are so good, I watched and did not fast forward any part, thank you, a respect from Vietnam
"Bucky Barnes returns to document the designing, pruning, carving and shaping of a Japanese Larch bonsai tree."
the description..
i love it
🤣 almost everyone's thinking it
That's why he looked so familiar...!
My guy you cannot only have two videos up, you've given me the bonsai equivalent of blueballs.
It’s a hobby that requires a lot of patience!
@@AnIllinoisan I'm not here for reasonable explanations, give me more tiny trees damnit
@@gfsvc i feel you bruh😭
There’s only one other channel I know of that has 2 videos and was super successful, and have also not uploaded any time recently
@@3stanTflip Once the sapling grows 😂😂😂
Producing such beautiful bonsai is clearly one of your gifts. So, it has to be said, is the very professional and talented way in which you both filmed and edited this video. The world needs gifted people. Flashes of brilliance in the grey. Great work. Thanks.
So much skill in so many different areas! Cultivating, editing, drawing, designing, caring, and gentleness. Wonderful content! So relaxing and informative. I especially like the infographics that helped me understand why pruning and cutting back branches are so important.
Damn i hope he has a whole collection of trees. This is exactly the kind of bonsai channel I was looking for.
SO INSANELY EXCITED to see a new video! I was REALLY hoping to see the interaction with your daughter again. You did not disappoint! I'm inspired and enthused by the beauty you create not only in your bonsai but in the entire creation of your videos. CONGRATULATIONS on giving us all the "feels" we didn't know we needed! I can't wait to see what you've got in store for us next! THANK YOU!!!!!!
Never has a comment so accurately described my feeling about something :) until this one.
Thank you Jason! I'm glad that others share the 'feels' too!
just this episode in story telling , teaching , interesting , entertainment , joy , beauty is more than most of series and movies out there , thanks a lot
The zoom-in shot through the branches focusing on the sculptor eye was so magical, i hope you bring that back with good rhythm.
I really appreciate the effort you put into the video - not only the visual quality and editing, but also informative hints and the before/after/after a year view of the tree. I like seeing people style trees but they usually don't show what it looks like after it had some time to grow and I feel like that's the most important part.
So thanks for taking the time to show us this (also: gorgeous tree)! :)
I just love the way of taking those shots and editing them, the music, the way you treated that tree, last but not least, your cute nephew
Your art restoration is absolutely phenomenal. I have truly enjoyed being allowed to be a part of this growing experience. Thank you!
This is what you call precision and patience. Dennis the butcher 🐹🦔
This video is pure quality, it almost made you feel like you're in a spa.
Wish someone would look at me the way this man looks at this tree
wow! same thoughts :)
Aw, I'm sure just as beautiful inside and out. Keep believing in yourself.

that's how nowadays content should be, masterpiece
Incredible production quality and the storytelling just blows my mind. Indoor houseplants sometimes like me, but I can imagine that tree is so happy and feels so proud to have found you in its life. I can't tell if you're a bonsai expert with a video producing hobby or a VFX supervisor with a bonsai hobby. Either way, can't wait for more.
I love it that you draw the whole finished tree before u wiring
This channel is the definition of quality over quantity. I don't usually watch videos at normal speed, but when you add something I do, and I give it my undivided attention. Beautiful work!
The elegance of this tree is overwhelmingly good
the tree, once he finishes working on it, in a whisper: "...thank you ♡..."
I think it would more than likely be one long drawn out scream of agony. Thing was mutilated and warped constantly for a year haha.
Beautfiul tree though!
This man’s dedication and attention to the most minute detail is admirable. Your time and effort doesn’t go unnoticed. Well done.
It really harkens back to the origin of bonsai in the form of miniature landscaping
Thank you Chris, I do wonder sometimes! But it will happen regardless. :)
One of the most beautiful things I've seen on the internet.
Breathtakingly original and beautiful. Your should publish a book, and just in case there is any published by you, please let us know. This is bonsai art at a different level. This is how asymmetry becomes balance, peacefulness and an exquisite frame of mind.
I just watched these two videos and I’m obsessed, the time and effort you put into these trees and videos is UGH 😩 I love it. Can’t wait for the next video
I cannot believe I just watched such a quality film for free.
The King Returns! I have the video paused right now just to type this comment to say I'll be saving this for a bedtime watch with my girlfriend, we both find your work so relaxing and were heartbroken your channel only had one video on it when we discovered you. I already know this one will be just as relaxing and beautiful
i have been growing and shaping bonsai for nearly 50 years. I kept only 7 grown from cuttings i have shaped through the years all pot grown..never spent time in the ground..gave away or sold the rest..i
l do like the larch vidio shows what somone who knows what he is doing can create ..well done sir
the attention to details is just unbelievable, the cinematic, the music… this is way better than therapy
Anyone else been waiting for this man to upload a 2nd vid because the first one was so good ??
Never thought I’d sit through 22 mins of a man fixing a bonsai tree, yet here I am, hooked.
The transformation was amazing to watch, tremendous foresight and patience - next level.
This is truly nice
Like a butterfly on leaf
Bonsai art soothes
He makes those type of videos that makes you forget to blink. Mesmerising. Beautiful.
That is such an inspiring and relaxing video! Keep up the great job and i hope, i can watch many more bonsai videos on your channel! Welcome back with your second video! I love it
Beautifully filmed
clear details and beautiful results, 5 years in 22 minutes. I am very impressed with your work so far.
keep it up.
Erik from the Netherlands
The attention to detail, the love and care towards these little trees is fascinating to say the least. Amazing content, I love it!
This man cares more for this tree than I’ve ever cared for myself.
Don't know what's better.. your art of Bonsai or your editing skills! Kudos to you. Inspirational videos... Thank you
Absolutely stunning. Love your attention to detail in both your photography/production skills and the execution of your art on the Bonsai. Pure. Beautiful. Amazing.
Ok. I live in the middle of the Alps. in a region with cliffs and mountains... And i tell you: "you made a beautiful piece of art!". this tree can easly be one of the trees that you can find here. Full of scars made by the avalances and from the rock falls! Bravo!!
"Just a little off the top please" -the tree
"... and then he bleached and dremeled my face and cut like half of my limbs and even cropped my feet. But at least I got a fancy new pot."
Even the tree need top
*Proceeds to perform involuntary yoga on said tree*
I've never known people put this much effort into a TH-cam comments section. So many thoughtful, long and appreciative messages. Bucky is really making an impact on people!
This is amazing. The effort and attention to details in naturing a bonsai plant and making a video on it. mad respect for you.
No unnecessary talking just quality 😍😍😍😍
The craftmanship this takes is AMAZING
for someone who is trying to get into bonsai, this was the video that I needed. You can see what happens in a year so you know what to expect.
So relaxing!! Definitely could watch many more! These videos are an inspiration for me as someone just stepping into the world of bonsai!!
I never knew this much precision, care and dedication existed. holy moly.
Everything about this is amazing. Beautiful tree, perfect cinematography and editing, great choice of music, use of lighting, and consideration for the cute caterpillar, etc. This was a joy to watch and makes me wish I had the skills, patience, and dedication to care for and shape a bonsai of my own.
Just as the first video, one of the most amazing things to ever see. This man is insanely talented, yet it’s the daddy & daughter moments that really put the icing on the cake. Such love and tenderness there. Makes me wish to one day have a little one of my own. Thank you so much for this video. Waiting anxiously for your next one.
You are the only one make my mind blowing the way you touch the tree and create good emotions of the bending and wiring.you have really great talent ser. You become inspiration of my bonsai hobby.
The cuts on every beat, the editing is just soooo satisfying 😭❤️
Your videos are so artfully crafted, with as much care as for the tree. You are teaching about the philosophy of bonsai as well, bridging the generations, life from death, and ultimately an expression for the emotion of the era. Thank you, and well done. And the respect you show your son is shaping his character as much as the little tree submits to your hand.
Incredible like the first video, by your fault I started this very zen discipline which allows me to forget a day of work. Arigato
Probably one of if not the best Bonsai videos on YT. Simply stunning result and great process. I come back to this video regularly...
Thank you for the kind words
This was beautiful.
Truly, more content will be needed.
The editing in this video is just *chef’s kiss*
Who knew bonsai trees were such an art! I am so inspired by this.
Now get a tree and try it. You might kill the tree but you will learn a bit. Get another tree and keep trying and learning and eventually you will get good at it. I have been doing it for 39 years. Love it and still learning.
It's so relaxing and satisfying to watch, also the video quality and production is superb.
I can't wait for your next video
Edit: Your kid is adorable :)
The video is not just for bonsai care and also a good son, you are a good father of nature and a good father of your son..
this guy never knew the phrase "it looked better in my head"
Because he first drew it on a page
@@GodsOath_com wooosh
i loved the synchronization with the music! and was crying for all those roots and branches the whole time ahaha but the tree looks healthy and beautiful so i guess when you know your stuff it all works out, amazing!
This was so wholesome i can’t even describe it
The transformation you bring to these trees is amazing!
I've enjoyed this channel immensely from the first video, and have decided to start my own this summer. But in 5-10 years when all of these masterpieces really start to put on some age and he gets better and better.. This channel will really be something special. It would be amazing to see a decade of well documented bonsai progress condensed into one video.
Man I’ve been into bonsai for years and up to this point you have the most professional looking videos
Incredible work. The dedication to the art is inspiring.
the amount of effort put into these videos is absolutely unreal. amazing work.
20:15 This scene is beautiful, magical, i don't even have the words to describe it. It seems like a scene of the tales of Winnie the Pooh
"like watching a tree growing" needs to be re-defined apparently! Great job
Great job!
Usually, Bonsai may take a long time, like over a hundred years, but you have done this so fast.
