Description
The trunk or meristem of the palm tree is actually covered with the scars of the bases of old, shed fronds; it is not bark. This nature abstract is a close-up of the hardened, left-over cells on a Bismark palm (Bismarckia nobilis). The ragged but relatively regular shapes form a pleasing pattern.

A beautiful abstract piece Nikolyn; love the sharpness and the details in textures and hues. Very well seen and photographed.
Nikolyn McDonald replied:
Thanks, Hany. This is a very beautiful tree. The fronds are silvery blue, very large, and quite magnificent. And it's not a tall tree, so it's quite easy to appreciate the entire thing.
