pea palm

best viewed large! ;)

my mom went to the market and bought a lot of peas!!!! she's addicted to veggies. and i helped her take the peas out the pods.. hmmmm... actually, i didn't help her, it was me doing all the work! LOL at some point i thought about flickr (actually i think of flickr every 5 minutes) LOL again! LOL! it took me a while to manage to split the pods so the peas wouldn't break from the pod, but i finally had enough to take this shot! hope you like it!! ;)

    Fantastic colors and composition. Can use some help in the sharpness department but overall very well done!

    This photo made me smile. Something so simple, so humble as peas turned into art. The colors here are just fabulous, and the image clarity is striking. I can see the little peapod fibers and everything! The thing that I'm wishing for is some sort of focal point, some place or thing for all the great symmetric lines to lead my eye to. Other than that, really really good.

    I don't think there is much to say that the onslaught of commenters haven't covered. I loev the simplicity of the shot. You arranged the peas perfectly and the stark color contrast is amazing. It's a great macro because you can see all the litle fuzzies on the pods. I just wish the left wasn't white washed a bit. Looks like you caught a nasty sunshine on that side of the room you were in. Great photo!
