A monochromatic close-up of a palm frond, captured with a shallow depth of field that emphasizes its geometric texture. The single palm frond extends horizontally across the frame. The focus is sharp on the central leaflets, highlighting their ribbed texture and metallic-looking sheen. The frond creates a rhythmic, repetitive pattern of parallel lines (pinnate leaflets) that curve slightly downward. The shot is in black and white, which draws attention to the interplay of light and shadow.
