I like them all! I knew you'd get good with that new lens and Camera(?) .


I particularly like the first and last of these. I'm a sucker for raspberries.

You like them ALL. I'm very happy to hear this.

I've had the camera for a couple of years now, and the lens since last year. They're a great combo and so easy to work with.

I too am a sucker for raspberries--I have to photograph them every single time I'm at that market. They are so beautiful!

The vendor told me the name, and I should have written it down, alas!

I do know they're from Australia and they make a nice dried arrangement.

If they have them again, I will try to remember to ask.

Beautiful, all of them. The farmers are artists, too. But what is the 4th picture?

I'm sorry that I don't know the name of that plant. I only know it's from Australia.

If they have them again next week, I will be sure to write down what they tell me it is.

I live my farmers market, too. It’s very small, but it’s in a park on the Kennebec River, and, like Linus’ pumpkin patch, it’s sincere!

I love going to this market! Not only are there many opportunities for interesting photos, but the produce is fantastic as well.

My Tuesday morning is ruled by this market! Can't miss it.

Love them all but especially the radishes.

I don't know what the fourth one is, though.

Have you ever had a radish sandwich? They are delish!

I have never had a radish sandwich! That idea has never occurred to me!

I hope to be able to report what that fourth photo is next week, if the vendor has them!
