Its summertime in the Northern Hemisphere and fresh fruits and vegetables are in abundance.
Farmers’ Markets and roadside stands are overflowing and offer a photographer great opportunities to add to their food photo collections.
While purple is not a color I associate with veggies, there are a few. And with the exception of the beets, they are some of my favorites.

Lovely photos!

2 Aug 2012Yes, they add so much color. We use red and yellow bell peppers for the same reason. Thank you for your visit to my blog and your comment.

3 Aug 2012Oh Gigi, good things take time and patience is a virtue:) IOW, I will do this one almost for sure, but I am having to sort out this Awards thing in “WordPress World” and decide how or if I fit in. Seems like a bit of a time robber.
