Description

Photograph of row of palm trees near the beach, [s.d.]. In the foreground at center, a large, bulbous palm tree can be seen. Pieces of the bark extend from its body, and several large palm branches can be seen extending from its top. Additional palm trees of the same size can be seen to the left and right further in the background. Trunks of much taller and slender palm trees are also seen in the background, but the tops of these trees are obscured in the image. Most of the trees are planted in a tile walkway visible in the extreme foreground on the right. A few of the palm trees on the far left can be seen planted in the sand of the beach. In the extreme background to the left, a small strip of the ocean is visible.
