Great shot, but perhaps it needs a bit more focus?

nice shot. darkening the silhouette all the way to 100% black would make the image pop even more.

Palms and sun go together well. Part of the palminess of plams, though, is the slender trunk which bends a little. Looks like yours is a date palm which has a slightly thicker trunk. I wish I could see more of it.

Nice silhouette. The bushes at the bottom third detract from the subject tree in your pic. I do like the leaves over sun. 6.
