[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I don't know if this is called a Fan Palm Tree or not, I should have written down what the little sign at the base said. I thought these were very dramatic looking trees. I hope my sister will post the photo she has of one of these trees as it's WAY better than mine (she has a nicer camera!) Anyway:
Added contrast, auto enhanced, and sharpened just a little, too much sharpening made these leaves look distorted.

Okay Update: I went and looked online for more information on what exactly this tree was called. Well...it's commonly known as a "Fan Palm" Guess I wasn't too far off!
There's a great website that talks all about these beautiful plants:

I like the color of the "fans". The composition is good and so is the sharpness. I tried reading the sign and it does say Fanpalm - just joking :)

Very well done and thanks for posting. May you and your family have a wonderful and prosperous new year.

This is nice Lori.
Good colours, compsition and details.
Well done.

Happy New Year.

Good detail on the leaves. Pictures of leaves are just never ending when you walk around with a camera. it is a subject that I like.

Hi Lori, this is a nicely composed shot. The palms form a nice arc framing the photo. Thanks, Don.
