when is the right time to prune japanese maples?  i have
some well established, healthy ~8 foot trees in my front 
yard, but over the last year they've lost some of their
shape and don't have that delicate, airy look they used
to.

i did some light shaping during the summer, but the growth
has returned.  most of the leaves are yellow now and in the
process of falling off but the trees are still producing 
some new growth, so i'm not sure the small amount of pruning
i did was such a grand idea.

also, any specifics on pruning to shape would be appreciated.
the trees are in san jose, near valley fair shopping center
(zone 40?  41?  i can't recall at the moment)...

regards,

elef
