Frond of YouPosted by Viewfinder (Bradenton, FL, United States) on 16 November 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio. Here are some spikey palm fronds on a little native tree we planted in our yard. I did do some saturation stuff to sort of enhance the color a wee bit. Always good to kick things up a notch now and then, eh?

Mandy from South AfricaWow it's gorgeous VF...Such a lovely green. It look slike the frondsof what we call a "Jelly palm", am I right? I'm not sure of the proper name but I know that's the common name they go by here! 16 Nov 2007 5:29am @Mandy: Glad you like this one Mandy, and as always, thanks for the nice words. I'd guess jelly palm is a local name; this is a variety "washingtonia" or something; some just call 'em cabbage palms. Blessings to you! tyan from Singaporeman this is so totally SPECTACULAR! I love the colours all right!They look so lovely and what a creative angle!Now we know not only is VF a superb photographer,but VF household has green fingers too!:) 16 Nov 2007 6:08am @tyan: LOL, green fingers would be the word for these all right.
