Hello Ori,
Interesting tree, makes me wonder why it seems to always produce a split trunk. Beautifully silhouetted against a multicolored sky as a BG.
I like the vertical composition.

Hello Ori,
Beautiful scenery! This plant somehow reminds me "Borassus flabellifer" in India. We eat its jelly seeds as well as ripe fruit.
Perfect vertical framing with good exposure.
Thanks for sharing,
Srikumar
