Subjects add scale to palm photos

I have noticed that sometimes I see a photo of a palm and without anything in the photo to provide scale the palm looks smaller than it is.  I was taking photos of my old garden and had one of my Sabal mauritiformis (posted below).  I then had another with subjects in it... doesn't it look bigger with people in it for scale?  First with no one in the photo, and next with my subjects:20190609-104A3804.thumb.jpg.cea140351d5bf239de4971ff7e195622.jpg

Objects definitely help for scale like the home depot =) People obviously put the palm in perspective. Good looking S.Mauritiformis

Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time.

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

Without me :rolleyes: as scale you would think that the Lyto weddells were only small palms, but as you can see in relation to me they are really huge: :P
