Queen palm in watercolor

I see a new series developing. It can be rewarding to play with some painterly effects in Photoshop after shooting the diverse shapes of Nature in Southwest Florida. On a walk through the Naples Botanical Garden recently, I tried to see and photograph something different this time. The Queen Palm looked so pretty with its overlapping leaves sunlit along the lake.

It was a Friday afternoon well spent. I recommend a visit to the Naples Botanical Garden, Gardens with Latitude.
