Description
ONE OF MY SOLD IMAGES
Strikingly beautiful vertical image of a palm tree in Houston, Texas, standing tall against the sky and backlit by the sun. The tree is flanked on both sides by graceful grasses that fill the lower portion of the frame and are also backlit, putting all in silhouette.
Processed as a true black and white with a special effect that darkened the palm. Submitted for a Before-and-After contest. This is the After image and is for sale.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
