I know the idea is that you post one photograph per day but as my friend Pete will testify, I have never been one to slavishly follow rules.

In any case, this photograph is of the same subject as the first just from a different perspective.

These are pictures I snagged from an ebay auction way back in 2005. This is the Palmtree Instruments 'Airdrums' that was released in 1988 - a drum machine that you played by waving two MIDI enabled batons in the air. I noticed that there's next to nothing in terms of visual presence of these on the web - and absolutely nothing in terms of audio / video demos. Hopefully Matrixsynth will pick this up and motivate an Airdrum owner to do a Youtube demonstration. Or maybe even a sample set? Hmm?

Beautiful green palm trees surround the island of Aitutaki.

It hasn't been exactly tropical here lately but this palm tree seems to be flourishing

I took this on my little vacation to Palm Desert.

In the neighborhood, a palm tree in a front yard. Dans mon quarter, un palmier dans un jardin.

Why you might ask do they have fake palms in a country where the real thing grows readily?

Well these steel palm trees don't need watering, they don't require pruning and they can't be attacked by the picudo rojo beetle.

I have to say though, I prefer the real thing.

It was raining when we first arrived. This bit is calm after tempest, minutes before there was a crew of kids rejoicing in front of the church.

One of the beaches at Marsh Harbor in the Bahamas. Some of the beaches had lots of grass growing up but were quite soft and white. Most of the water in front of the beach was really nice.though.
