Happy Macro Monday!

This week's theme: Condiments

A trip to the farmers market.

The bell pepper is the fruit of plants in the Grossum cultivar group of the species Capsicum annuum. Cultivars of the plant produce fruits in different colours, including red, yellow, orange, green, white, and purple. Bell peppers are sometimes grouped with less pungent pepper varieties as "sweet peppers".

Thank you for taking the time to look, the comments and faves.

Macro Mondays "Behind Glass" theme

Pepper on this Perch is exhibiting his Passive-Aggressive side because that perch really truly belongs to Tikki. I think this may be the first time I've ever seen him up there. It is in some ways a good thing as he has lost some weight and he has the energy to get up there. (Losing weight is good, doing it this quickly is a bit troubling but his specialty vet got blood work earlier this week and it was perfect.) Oh yes, the Happy Caturday theme 17 October 2020 is 'Catphabet."

Happy Caturday theme 19 Dec 2020, "Colourful". Pepper likes to snuggle under fabric so I thought I'd let him play with last year's rainbow tie-dyed "Kittenpalooza" T from Cat Adoption Team. Pepper is Black and white but between that huge red yawn and the T shirt I think he's pretty colorful!

Putting me in the kitchen with dinner preparations is an opportunity for me to be distracted. After a few years of stopping the cooking process to photograph various foods, I've learned to set those precious possible photographic candidates aside for a while. Here's to red peppers...a source of Vitamin C and antioxidants. Hooray for healthy foods!

Pepper Pot Cottage on the St Giles estate in 2010 pre renovation and at this time looking unloved. So different now in 2016 there has been a total transformation. Wimborne St. Giles Dorset. You can see the renovated Pepper Pot cottage in my album of Knowlton,Ebbesborne Wake and Wimborne St Giles. #WimborneStGiles

Buy 10 for 10, get 11th free. I made a big batch of stuffed peppers the other day!

 

Happy Slider Sunday!

Capsicum, or bell pepper is the fruit of plants in the Grossum Group of the species Capsicum annuum

I bought these for the family to eat but thought they were rather photogenic so put them in a glass bowl and took their photo.

Rainy days are great days to play with still life's.

Saturday Self Challenge

 

This week's challenge then is to show two things which are different, yet largely the same. For example two forks that don't match, two different types of yellow car, maybe a pair of different coloured socks from a matching set. Collage or a single image is fine. As ever new photos please.

 

This was one of those ideas that in my mind seemed simple but turned out to be quite difficult to pull off. I decided after taking photos of the ground pepper and the complete peppercorns in separate containers that they would look probably look better in the same one. That was when the trouble started, trying to get them not to mix. In the end I folded a small piece of aluminium foil and placed it across the middle of the wooden bowl. I carefully filled from each side and then just before I was ready to take the pictures I carefully removed the foil barrier. I did end up with a couple of stray peppercorns getting into the ground up side, but I would have caused too much of a mess attempting to remove them. I do hope it’s suitable for the challenge.
