Drooping new leaves

Hello 名媛直播 Empire,
I am new to bonsai.
We bought a beautiful Trident Maple 10 days ago (it looks about 20 year old?). Since we brought it home, leaf buds and now leaves are appearing.
I am worried about the leaves. They appear to be "drooping". I attach several images.
I have been attentive to watering, checking the soil every day and watering regularly to keep it moist.
The tree is on a porch and gets sun twice a day (but not all day).
Is the tree OK, or do you think that there is a problem? Or is this just a factor of my novice bonsai knowledge?
Many thanks,
Doug

Jup that is also my experience. I do see a few browned leaf-tips but the tree seems healthy to me.
