A playful macro texture of round sweets covered with tiny sugar beads. The base is pure white, adorned with bright dots of blue, yellow, and red, creating a vibrant and joyful pattern. A delicious fusion of candy and design, where sweetness becomes art.
This week I missed my lightning eqipment to capture a candy for macro monday. I found a place in the nearby park and used the bright sunlight for my photograph. It´s a small sugar candy which was so sticky that I could not release it from the silver shining package. (03662)
It’s not the colour of my car.
You really have to want that.

A pair of Soo Line SD60M haul autoracks towards Shoreham yard in Minneapolis on 07-11-2004. Leading 6061 was built in November 1989 as was the trailing 6062. I liked the candy apple red color scheme which made for great train shots in almost any environment.

Visited my favorite candy store today - "Munson's" on route 6 in Bolton, CT - getting a tasty gift for my sis-in-law and saw this display mounted on the wall next to all the delectable sweets.

The first candy came to America in the early 18th century from Britain and France. Only a few of the early colonists were proficient in sugar work and were able to provide the sugary treats for the very wealthy. Rock candy, made from crystallized sugar, was the simplest form of candy, but even this basic form of sugar was considered a luxury and was only attainable by the rich.
Then came the Industrial Revolution.
The candy business underwent major changes in the 1830s when technological advanced and the availability of sugar opened up the market. The new market was not only for the enjoyment of the rich but also for the pleasure of the working class. There was also an increasing market for children. While some fine confectioners remained, the candy store became a staple of the child of the American working class. Penny candy became the first material good that children spent their own money on.
In 1847, the invention of the candy press allowed manufacturers to produce multiple shapes and sizes of candy at once.

The brass plate on the wall over the rollers reads:
"Drop Roller"
This machine uses changable
rollers to produce hard candy.
A sheet of candy was cooled
to perfect consistency and
fed through these rollers to
make items like "Lemon Drops".
- Circa 1859 -
The maker of this plate could have used a proofreader as there is no such word as 'changable', it is 'changeable'. No intention to be picky about a misspelled word, but, someone dropped the ball and I noticed. Was a graphic designer for 45 years and a misspelled word on anything commercially printed is mortifying, for the designer and the business that provided the product, as well as costly. Surprised no one noticed.

With thanks to Karen White - her zigzag photo inspired me to try taking photos of reflections in a spoon.
When I went to supermarket shopping, all I see is sweeties and chocolate for the Christmas Festival.
A trip to the candy store, a glass shop, and Sears equipped me for this shot. This is straight from the camera with no additional processing.

This candy cannon has just fired toward a waiting crowd in a nearby field. This cannon is powered by compressed air and its barrel loaded with treats. A high point of any visit to Cornbelly's.
