Fraxinus No.2 with winter silhouette

Few days ago I was taking pictures of this ash bonsai with nice autumn colors as you can see on pictures. Now, this week I had one night when temperatures dropped to roughly -5 °C. On that morning I looked on tree through m window and I see few of trees fallen off. As temperatures started to rise during the day and frost released almost all leaves fell off. 
So today I took my camera and made few pictures. This is moment of truth for deciduous bonsai artist because you can see if ramification during this season improved or not. Judge for yourself. Now, I have to find much better pot for this tree, bit smaller, and repot it during next spring. I guess it will look better. We will see.
