Hi, I'm Marilyn. Â I've been posting here on RR for a few years now and thought it was time to update my profile. Â It's been wonderful learning so much from the amazingly talented people here. Â I've had the chance to meet many in person and some have become great and good friends. Â 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. Â Got the bug honestly; my dad was a photographer and gave me the gene!! Â Digital changed the world and I jumped in with both feet. Â You would've gone thru 100's of rolls of film in one day the way we can shoot and delete all day long. Â 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

I can safely say I have never seen anything like this! I'm sure, it must make sense, they have to grow from somewhere but I never gave any thought as to where or the purpose of the coconuts themselves. Very cool and very educational shot!

i suppose that volcanic soil really has quite an influence on how things grow.

Any relation to El Pollo Loco? I echo MrsRatbag's comments in re this masterful shot, Marilyn.

Oooh, I like this! I love the way this little guy is nestled in with other bits of greenery, almost hidden, but well within plain sight as well. Fantastic work again.

love Denise's comment, I didn't think about it either: I didn't realize the coconut carried the seed for the tree. The shot is another of your wonderful juxtapositions: all those thick tropical leaves, a sudden break into dark gravel, a big coconut sprouting a tree & just sitting there (and above ground!), the odd detritus in the gravel, and some kind of branch across the top—a real marilyn mix, vital & vivid, strange & exciting, and always a discovery. I truly didn't know coconuts were the seed: But they're the fruit, so of course they carry the seed. Something else I learn from your gallery everytime I come here...
