Are these pruned down enough?

10 years ago

Do you think I've pruned these two old, tall bushes enough? They had been neglected for years. Two years ago, a neighbor cut them way down for me, but he didn't really put much thought into it. Last year I learned how to prune them properly, and pruned them very short again. This year I have many nice canes growing the way I want them to grow, and I want them to continue to go in those directions. To give you an idea of what they were like before pruning, they were 6 - 9 inches above the top of that wall.

Two notes: For confused people living in the snowdrifts, I'm in Arizona, where it's pruning time! Also, this photo looks like I have canes crossing. They're not. Some are in front and some are in back, and they're not anywhere near each other.
