I found this amazing piece of palm wood, or actually it's just a sheath or husk for what would have been the base of a leaf. The gardener left it sitting on the lawn in front of building and I decided to recycle it by making something with it.
What drew me to it was the colour of the material, despite there being fungus and algae or moss growth on it.
After a good wash, some planning based on it's natural shape, then cutting it with a pair of kitchen scissors (the most heavy duty ones we had, I wish I had gardening shears), ending up with a blister or two, then sanding the edges with a large pedicure file (lol), the final products were done.
I made a platter along with a bracelet before calling it quits for the project.
Here is the palm tree's trunk showing the growth rings and Flat Stanley's new bathing suit with palm trees on it.
Palm warblers are a very present force during migration in the Great Lakes region, perhaps the most plentiful warbler during this time of the year. They are not shy and stay still longer than most other warblers which make them terrific photo subjects. Unfortunately, their fall plumage is not as grand as their spring/summer's best but they try to compensate by posing in lovely settings. I was fortunate that this palm warbler took flight on a even plane as my camera allowing me to capture its flight from one end of the flower to the next, only clipping its wing off on one shot (not pictured).
I thought I would post the other shot I had ready of the Palm House, as everyone seemed to quite like the last one. I forgot to mention that yesterdays photograph was a full year of photographs, the past 14 days made up for the 2 weeks I was away in Spain over the summer.
My first Palm ever since Palm brought back the rights to the Palm brand name. Personally, I still like the Palm-Powered logo on my Tungsten more.
