Hi Steven,
I want to say "Obaaleeey" in Turkish :)
Nice catch, 'cause you give a good effect of height. It is so superb. Do you know how tall it is?
Congrats!

Hi Steven

Good composition..
And great idea ..
The cloudes on the sky are so fragile..the colors are very good..

GOOD JOB

Sandu

Hi Steven, This is a very unusual but very nice perspective on the Palm Tree. It is almost looking architechtural here. So here's another shot I'm going to have to try. I keep learning.

Thanks, John

Hi Steven,
very interesting and uncommon perspective... original palm tree. I like the contrast with the blue sky...
Best regards,
Andrzej

Indeed a cool palm tree, the spiral that climbs up the tree is interesting. I've never seen that on a palm tree. Great low POV taken and well composed too. Great idea of heigth, and by that also of depth. Good work with polarizer, sharpness is top and exposure fine. Well done. :) later.

Hi Steven!
It's superb take, let me tell you. The trunk's texture is inetersting, as well as the branches in the blue sky. The tree is going diagonal a bit, and that's fine too.
Lovely colours.
Seb

Hi Steven
Very nice POV and I like the dark leaves there against the blue sky.

Hello Steven,
Great POV with extraordinary perspective. A little clouds near palm leaves is so powerful and very good.
Deepness, colors and contrast are so good. Plam stock is so interesting and gives very beatiful view.
Congrats and TFS,
Have a nice day.

Hi Stephen great POV and depth of field, lovely sky too.
