Description
These are date palms near Palm Springs, California. I saw this wonderful lighting and stopped the car for three or four shots. Out of nowhere, the horse ambled into the scene!

I was taking a photograph course at the time and my instructor processed this one for me in his lab ...in this lovely sepia. I actually showed it in an art exhibit...but it didn't sell and I still own it.

Wonderful composition and detail in this beautiful landscape, Nancy. I love the use of a monochrome palette to bring out the textures. LF

CJ Anderson
Fantastic shot, Nancy! They are gorgeous trees and the fruit is oh so yummy! Not to mention how delicious a date shake is!!
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
I just hope they are still there in all of their beauty! You are so right about the shakes!
Lenore Senior
Fantastic! Great art and mood to this. Absolutely beautiful and instant v/f
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
Thank you so much, Lenore. The date palm is truly a magnificent tree....and these tall rows felt like the Parthenon.

F/v2 Wow! I love this picture! The trees are positively grand - stately giants, and the horse looks so casual:>)
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
These are date palms and they were near Palm Springs. I hope I could go back to that very spot and they would still be there. I imagine they "harvested" these for decoration for the golf courses!!

Wonderful monotone piece, love the horse! V
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
The horse just happened to be there. We stopped the car (I saw the trees), I ran out and snapped three or four quick b/w and they were in an art show I had, printed in sepia. The original is so much better....hard to reshoot a picture which was shot in film....and printed in sepia.
