A DEEPLY RESOLVED AND FULLY DEDICATED PALM TREE

“Resolved – Have you ever made a New Year’s Resolution that you kept?”

I’ve never made a New Year’s Resolution. So I guess I never kept one.

Isn’t this a lovely palm tree? This first shot I converted to black and white.

This second shot is natural, more or less, not counting cropping. No matter how I did it, it has remained lovely. Does this count as resolution?

The final shot is a cynotype (monochrome in shades of blue), but still an excellent palm specimen.

It’s been raining steadily here since we arrived and more rain is expected. You can see the clouds building up, but that will not stop we intrepid travelers! We shall go where many tourists have gone before and take fantastic pictures! Tally ho!

  5. You don’t make resolutions, and you don’t let the prompts boss you around! That is the pioneer spirit they must love in Arizona!
