Photographer’s Note
I know there was much dismay when I deleted my gallery of majestic palms. All that pointing and shooting, lost!
Well, I pointed and shot some more palm trees. Oh, yes, It's derivative. A bad copy, but imitation is the greatest form of flattery, after all.
By the way, it's raining. there are palm trees in this picture.

I believe you. They are much easier to see on the thumbnail then here, on the big screen.
For the photo, I do not see which part of the world I am looking at! May be it is Redcliffe QLD, where we have lots of palm trees and today a diluvial rain.
But, I love the technical aspect of the shot, with its sharpness, colours and composition.

I’d like to echo Antonio when it comes to the technical aspect. Your approach is new and artistic. I should follow your example and do something “new” but then, I have no photos anyway! SeaN

Didn't know there's a Hollywood in Florida.. that rain, red light and yes the palm trees certainly make for better shots than any californian blue sky paparazzi plams ;-)

I think it is a nice and original idea. Maybe you could have played more with different povs, I don't know, but it is eye-catching and somehow a picture different from the usual schemes.

And here I am Farah,
Hope you managed to download the goblin tone. :-D
At last the palm trees. Lovely! Never imagined that palm trees could be portrayed so dark and so masterfully. Yeah... those brownies play wonders...
It seems that a volcano just exploded in Hollywood. Keep eating those brownies, will you?
Bye

And this one is wonderful also.
Like abstract painting. Don't wish to look for some meanings. Just am enjoying the beauty of colours and composition.
Greetings T.
