Description
Photograph of cluster of palm trees seen at the base of a canyon, Palm Canyon, [s.d.]. In the extreme foreground at left, a small rock formation is visible and slightly obscures the image. In the background at center, a large group of palm trees can be seen. Each of the palm trees have long, thick trunks with several branches extending from the top. The palm trees shown are in an arc formation around the base of a curving mountain range seen in the extreme background. The sloping mountain range can be seen extending from the left to the far right. At center near many of the palm trees along the arc, large patches of vegetation are visible.
