Lonely Pear

A simple still life shot with an iPhone: pear with wood and granite.  Flat, uninteresting light, but that did allow the textures and colors to dominate, and the odd marks on the pear to show clearly, and emphasized the outline of shape rather than an illusion of third dimension.  Or, I'm just making excuses for the flat light and my failure to do anything to modify it!  Try this one: I got hungry!

    1. 'Twas a Comice pear, and thus did not last long once ripe. Mmmmmm!

  2. I see what you did there: it's an excuse to pun on your previous entry!

    Well played, Sir; well played.

    1. Ah, but it's the succeeding entry that puns on this one! That's the thing about blogs, the way they're laid out on the page...
      I was thinking that if Ziva were male, I could consider "him" to be my son, and I'd be "Lonely, Père"...
