Palm Tree and Sailboat at Sunset - Tropical Silhouette Photography

Sale price$45.00
Material:
Size:

A palm tree leans into the frame in silhouette against a tropical sunset, a single sailboat anchored far out on the horizon. The coconut palm is one of the most widely distributed trees in the tropics, in large part because its buoyant, water-resistant fruit can drift across open ocean for months and still take root on a distant shore. The low sun flattens both palm and boat into pure outline against the graded sky. The photograph exposes for the warm light, letting the foreground go dark so the composition rests entirely on shape and color — the Caribbean reduced to its two simplest forms, a tree and a sail.
