Photograph of two palm trees with large view of ocean in background, Santa Monica, [s.d.]. Slightly to the left of center, a large palm tree is visible. Several of the palm branches extend from the top of the tree, while other branches can be seen drooping near the slender trunk. Beside the tree at center, a very small, slender tree is visible. This tree is only composed of a few branches with very limited foliage near its top. To the right in the extreme foreground, some branches from another palm tree are visible. Behind the set of trees in the background, a very primitive fence composed of interlocking branches is visible. Beyond the fence in the extreme background, a large expanse of ocean can be seen. Several groups of clouds are also visible in the sky.
