If Peter Piper picked...

[EV Wonder]

...a peck of pickled peppers, do you think he was a migrant worker?

Internet Answer:
No, migrants move around. Peter Piper picked pickled peppers, probably professionally, probably paid per peck, probably preferred prolonging perpetual paychecks. Perambulating prohibited pickled pepper picking. Peter Piper postponed pressing on, pending permanent payoff.

I must have been hungry that day, down at the Farmer's Market, because all I could think about was steak, onions....and peppers!! rolleyes;

Love them all, Blayne. Great subject matter, great colour, great composition, perfect exposure and excellent dynamic range. Hard to pick a favourite, but if I was forced to, I'd go with the first.

I like the first best too! Nice lighting and color and those pepers certainly make me hungry....

[Rob]

I think that these would have the wrong effect on my system:wacko:Great shots Blayne. Nice color & well exposed

I think Harvey has said it all Blayne. I pick #1 also. The colours here are simply superb.

Love the dynamic range on these!

Now, make my medium rare please.

As always, Harvey, your comments are much appreciated. You have a way of doing wonders for the ego. :) BTW, #1 is my favorite too!

Thank you Pam. I see I wasn't the only one who was affected by the peppers...seems that others got hungry too! ;)

Glad to see you liked the peppers Rob, even if you don't like peppers! :biggrin: Thanks!

Thanks Joe! Harvey does have a way with words, doesn't he?

Love the dynamic range on these!

Thank you, Mao! Does this mean I'll be running into you at the local farmer's market instead of an aviary, flyway, or pond? :nah:

Perfectly pixelated peppers.

Great colors, Blayne! I also like your chosen dof in the last one.

Thank you Sally! I'm not surprised, though, because peppers are often used in a good "salsa." But then you already new that! :biggrin:

Thanks Kevin! The good dof was probably an accident. ;)

Perfectly pixelated peppers.
LOL I couldn't have said it better, Bobby. Thanks!!

Beautiful shots

Nice ones EV, it's harder than it looks, I tried to get a giant yellow pepper with the flash indoors when a friend, who grew it, brought it over and had a hell of a time blowing the high lights off the refective skin )+: Nice shooting!

Thanks a lot, Jerry! I think it was Edward Weston, the famed photographer, who made photographing peppers trendy. :) I doubt though that he shot whole baskets of them and his were in the B&W film days.
