ABC Wednesday letter "P"

Wednesday, November 7, 2007




"P" is for pepper and pomegranate. I thought these peppers were so interesting. I found them during a walk through a garden during our Apple Hill trip. I never realized that they grew pointing up.

The pomegranate was picked from my parents back yard. I just loved the detail in top and thought it looked like a crown.

I didn't know they grew pointing up either.
Great "P" shots today.

Are your peppers what we call chillies? That name is an oxymoron as there is nothing chillie about them, they burn the lining from your mouth?
The pomegranates remind me of my borading school days. They grew all over the school grounds, but were forbidden, as they were reputed to stain our clothes. The pomegranate bushes were also big enough to hide us when we ate them.

Great "P" shots. I have no clue about the peppers growing like that either.. I haven't had a pomegranate since I was a small. I recall them quite yummy!! Wonderful detail on that pomegranate top!! :) :)

Good golly Miss Molly - imagine living in a climate warm enough to grow peppers and pomegranates! I'm so jealous! :) Superb 'P' shots.

I like peppers and pomegranates, although the later are a lot of work to eat.

Lovely shots... strange that they grow upside down ahaha..

Either way, I love it (were they spicy peppers?).

I am becoming a big fan of compositions where the entire object is not in the frame. That pomegranate shot is spot on. It seems to be one of the flavors that is popping up in everything these days.

Peppers, now that is one of my favorite subjects ... (don't get me started, I love them :) ...

As a child I was told the yellow flesh of a pomegranate was poisonous, hence we ate them with a pin! Well I am still here!

Great pic.
Love the close up!
