The view from the veranda

Ever since we moved to this house, I’ve always wanted to get a closer view of this tree. It is a variety of palm tree but the leaf blades are shorter, wider and form a zigzig along the edge. Yesterday, just before it rained, I was standing on the second floor veranda with my telephoto lens attached to my camera. I may not have had the chance to walk close to the tree but I was able to look at it closely with the telephoto lens.
If there appears to be two blurry line across the photo, those are telephone cables.

The photos and the photographers
Everyone in my family loves digital photography and this blog is an album of some of the photos we have taken. We do post photos in our personal blogs but some are better appreciated in larger format so we post them here.
We're not professional photographers although my daughters, Sam and Alex, are seriously considering taking up multimedia degrees in college.
The name of the photographer and the camera used is indicated below the title of each photo. The archives are arranged by camera used and by the photographer's name.
The photos are owned by their respective photographers; we ask that viewers respect that. We do not allow copying of the photos. We especially do not allow their reposting on the web, specifically in photo-sharing communities. You are free, however to link -- not hotlink -- to permalink pages of this photo blog.
Contrary to the theory being propagated by sploggers and webmasters who think it is okay to make money off other people's content, and contrary to the very self-serving belief of some editors and employees of newspapers, magazines and websites of mainstream media, not everything on the internet is "public domain". If you are interested in using any of the photos for personal or commercial purposes, we can provide you with the originals in high resolution format. Drop us an e-mail and we can discuss terms that will be mutually beneficial for us.
