I noticed this leaning tree while sitting in the car waiting for a restaurant to open. It looked like the tree was trying to escape from the hotel. Grabbed my iPhone to get the photo and realized it wasn't leaning away from the building, it was leaning sideways. Not as interesting a story, but I made something of it anyway. I do so like to make silly pages... Funniest thing of all - they never bothered to replace the tree. Maybe they think it gives the place character. Noticed I broke my cardinal rule with the first post - so I fixed itNote: I added my logo and the date - ALWAYS DATE YOUR LAYOUTS, logo is optional
BTW - the frame on my layout is a simple four lines - drawn with the pencil tool. If you hold down the shift key while drawing your line, you will get a straight line. There are many tools that work with the shift key - including the brush tool.

Here's a clip from the website's overview of our new hotel - my funny palm tree is front and center - I obviously missed the best view for my photo - I don't think that stick holding it up is going to do a thing...

Love everything about the way you designed your page, Janice. Color scheme, font, added elements, photo placement background and frame work beautifully together. Like the way you created your story around that one simple picture.

I love your take on this bent palm, and as you say, it’s all in the angle you view it from, and even better that they choose to leave it in place just as it is, albeit with a crappy post pretending to hold it up....

I wonder why it grew that way. Thank you for mentioning about the shift key. I just have to remember that now.

I wonder why it grew that way. I'm guessing it arrived from the nursery in that condition and the landscapers planted it just because it was delivered. Of course that doesn't explain why it grew that way in the first place. That 2x4 was supposed to fix it??? LOL The hotel was completed less than a year ago, but that was long enough for a miracle straightening if it was going to happen.
