Love the angle on the berry boxes and the soft earth tones of the string beans and onions.

I like that angle too! I like to vary things, when I can.

This market isn't quite as exciting as the one in Manhattan Beach, but it holds its own.

I have lovely markets and farm stands all around right now in central Maine, but too many have vanished from my old western New York home.

Your gorgeous celebrations, Peggy, are a worthy tribute to the goodness that farms and farmers create for us. And every picture makes me want to dive through the frame.

Thank you so much for your eloquence.

I enjoy what I can capture so much, and when good people like yourself praise me, I just feel very lucky.

I also love the berry boxes photo. The colors and and the angle are so lovely. What are the little yellow fruits? Kumquats? All the vegetables look delicious. Thanks for all the great photos!

I've seen those little yellow fruits before, but for the life of me, I cannot remember their name! I don't think they're kumquats.

I'm so glad you enjoy my photos.
