An ever-evolving and burgeoning body of work known as "still life" fills the artspace, and my blog is no exception. I love photographing food, raw or prepared, and thus, you will once again be subjected to it in today's posting.
In New Mexico, where late frosts in spring and early frosts in the fall wreak havoc with fruit growers, a great fruit year that includes tons and tons of apricots and peaches seems to occur only every seven or eight years. Those who have apples and pears have better luck, with good crops every two or three years. 2012 was one of the years where the crops overlapped, and everyone seemed to have more fruit than they needed.
The photograph below is courtesy of Victoria's apples. The pears are from the Santa Fe Farmers' Market.
Although pomegranates are being grown in southern New Mexico, these probably came from a more distant location, still eminently photographable.
We are having a taste of winter, with a high yesterday of 29 and low temperature early this morning of -1. Downhill skiers and boarders are salivating! I will continue to eye the fruit!
until next Monday,

Nice shots, Daryl. I really like the leaves on the apples.
