 This is the view from my office. Don't be too jealous... I spend my day facing the opposite direction looking at insurance paperwork. =/

Would have liked to crop out the little short palm tree on the left, but then there'd only be five. Oh well.

Post Processing: Converted from Raw, cropped, played a lot with levels, color and saturation, and cloned out a couple small power lines.

I considered shooting palms myself, but I had only ugly gray skies behind them, unlike these lovely colors.

This picture is very beautiful. I think that this is nature at it's finest and you captured it. The colors are very bright and creates an illusion.

pretty sunset. It looks so calm and srene - wish I was there. Too bad there weren't just the six main palm trees. Good composition too.

Wonderful landscape and excellent colors. I have a slight problem witht he fact that there are actually more than six palm in the photo.
