mellow yellow melon - 342/365

    Newer Older

    A few weeks ago, a farmer's market magically sprung up in the plaza outside of my work. Every Wednesday through Friday, I am tempted by corn and peaches and tomatoes and the like as I rush in the door to my office. On Friday, these beautiful watermelons were just there calling to me, so I grabbed one after work and lugged it home on the subway. I cut into it immediately when I got home, excited to take my first bite of the summer of the bright pink flesh. You can imagine my surprise when it turned out to be...yellow?! It was just as tasty as the traditional melon (hell, I ate the whole thing by myself in under two days), but a pink watermelon it was not. You learn something new everyday. I think I'll buy another next week. :)

      The color and contrast is great. It drips of watermelon. Nice.

      this is absolutely gorgeous.
      the colors just sing, and hold you there in the middle so beautifully.
