Palm leaf up close

SO I woke up pretty early on a weekend a few weeks back and just really felt the urge to go outside with my morning tea and draw something. At around 6:30am, it's really bright and sunny, but the birds are still singing, and it's still "moist" outside. So I sat on the steps leading to the upstairs apartment of my neighbor's, and saw this palm leaf through the steps that was backlight by the rising sun. I thought it would be both challenging and fun because it has all these little lines in the leaf, as well it does have an odd shape from this angle.
