Looking for pictures of very mature trichocereus bridgesii cacti

Like the title says, I'm looking for pictures of very mature trichocereus bridgesii cacti. I'm particularly looking for pictures of ones that have not been tampered with, as in no cuttings or grafts, although minor tampering will probably work too. I'd also love it if the cacti have move than one column. The older the cacti, the better. I'm trying to see the growth patterns these particular cacti.
Thanks in advance.

I've already done so. I can only find a few with more than one column, and none that aren't in huge clumps of many cacti, which makes it really hard to see the growth patterns.
I may mean arm instead of column. I'm not exactly sure on what the technical terms are.
This is the only picture that I've found even close to what I'm looking for:

Wait, are you looking for pics of pedro or bridgesii??

Here are some of mine from last winter:
 The small one is a branch. It grew right out of the base. They are only 3-4 years old and they were started from 1 ft cuttings. I think that the branching pattern is candelabra like, meaning they branch low on the columns. I don't know if that is what you are looking for?

I'm not sure. It was the biggest one that I had. What units do you measure size with? inches? gallons?

You grow that indoors?

Someone posted months ago pictures of a line of Trichocerei like a fence at the end of a garden. They were amazing specimens, IIRC.

I was thinking how well they looked for being grown indoors. Them being indoors for the winter makes more sense of an explanation of why they look so well.
