Hi, I'm Marilyn.  I've been posting here on RR for a few years now and thought it was time to update my profile.  It's been wonderful learning so much from the amazingly talented people here.  I've had the chance to meet many in person and some have become great and good friends.  Starting with a Kodak Brownie camera when I was about 7 or 8, moving up to Instamatics, Polaroids, then the Pentax K1000 that really got me on the way, I've been looking at the world thru a lens for a long time.  Got the bug honestly; my dad was a photographer and gave me the gene!!  Digital changed the world and I jumped in with both feet.  You would've gone thru 100's of rolls of film in one day the way we can shoot and delete all day long.  Progess...it can be awesome sometimes.
At any rate, RR rocks, the talent is over the top and I'm just gonna keep on shooting!!
Thanks for looking and keep those cameras rollin'!!
peace.....marilyn

When they get to this size they don't need much looking after. It reminds me of an afro, lol. Excellent capture, love that sky. Bravo!!!!!

When I was in California I could only distinguish the date palms of Indio which this looks like from the coca palmosa cocoanut palms of Pasadena and Beverly Hills. Florida palms include many more types and I'm sure so did California. On the East coast lethal yellow did kill almost all the cocanut type palms.

cool shot

they'd dead? Fine silhouetting in this capture of a tree I am most familiar with down here in Southern California. In fact, I do believe I've already posted a few pics of them on Renderosity.

For some reason I keep seeing one of the Muppets in this....I don't know the name, but the one that lives in the trash can...anyway, I really like this shot, it looks to be a very healthy palm tree, and the sky colors are marvelous!

Nice picture!

This has nothing to do with the picture, but I read MrsRatbag's comment and immediately started thinking of the Muppet song, "Mahna Mahna" and now it's stuck in my head and, somehow, it fits with this image. As for this image, it's a gorgeous piece of work. I love the simplicity of it, and the crisp qualities it possesses. It also reminds me of "Wild Palms" a short lived comic that appeared in DETAILS Magazine in the 1990s; it was made into a rather lurid mini-series, starring Angie Dickenson, Jim Belushi, Kim Catrall, Robert Loggia...and others. Whenever I look at lone palm trees, I'm reminded of that miniseries, and the wonderful palm-tree tattoo that it inspired, though the tattoo isn't on my body. Oh well...Great work! As always!
