October Theme - Lines

It has been ages since I have joined a theme day. It made me realise how many times I have been away this year on the first of the month!!!!

I immediately thought of coconut trees when I knew Lines was the theme for this month.

Their trunks are amazing.


......and so are their leaves.

I have posted the tree trunks before but thought they could do with another airing as they fit the theme so well. I have changed them to B & W to highlight their line.

    Not too dangerous when it's "coconuts time" to go for a walk underneath?
    Beautiful picture!

    It makes an interesting picture.

    I was expecting somebody to come up with a line at the doctor's office, or a line at the peep show, or a line at the voting booth. I saw all kinds of lines and been in all of them and how quick we forget.

    You can never show too many coconut trees (smile). The leaves are a special treat.

    Terrific set of lines. Converting to black and white was the perfect choice. I like your saying that you were giving your picture another airing...good post Jules.

    These lines created by those coconut trees are just wonderful and a great choice for this month's CDPB theme. Mine's just up to.

    therese - not a good idea to sit or park your car under one. The noise of them hitting the ground with a huge thud is one we hear all the time here!!!

    Abe - you are much more creative than I am - what a clever idea!!!

    hyde & denton - hi guys good to hear from you

    eki - hi and welcome to rabaul!!

    Hi Elaine, Sue & knoxville girl - thanks for dropping by

    Love these photos!! Such a great way to highlight the beautiful lines in your part of the world. As for Paris, if I see a line outside a bakery I'll join in as I'm sure that whatever they're selling must be good!

    Great interpretation, from the thumbnail I couldn't tell they were tree trunks, they looked more like tree roots.

    I think both shots are fabulous and I’m glad you joined in on Theme Day.

    I only joined in on the theme by accident as I never pay any attention to until the theme is posted. I guess you can say I’ve never been one to conform to rules or join in with others.
