gREAT SHOT BUBBALOUIE!

That building really shows that it's Palm Beach. No mistaking those apartment buildings with the view of the sea and the warm GUlf Stream raising clouds offshore.

Brings me back to December of 2007 . . .

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

It is such a peaceful picture. Early morning, calm, warm air, quiet, and those big luxurious Cocos right next to the building to show scale. I can imagine people in that building getting up and looking out their glass sliding doors to check the weather while seeing those beautiful palms silhouetted by the morning sky and those puffy clouds. Very peaceful.

My thought, too. I just want to crop out all the human things, as I see John did (nice, John!). Still, it evokes that "I wanna be there" feeling (and now I'm depressed because I'm not :(). Nice work!
