After I came up with "Color From the Heart" I tried one other mix with the objective of keeping the cool color gradients but in a simplified format. I mixed "Pepper Art - 9 Frames w/Color" with "Pepper Polka Dots - This Week's Bonus Pic" and the texture from the kevlar speaker cone and that was it, at last I was done. This is what I wanted all along and no further mixing of the pepper will occur, this is it: "Pepper - The End" The images used to make this are in the first comment, enjoy and thank you, have a great Sunday.

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!

In the Image of Her (Still Life No. 3)

In the Image of Her
There are times in photography when it doesn’t go my way, but over the years I’ve learned to quietly work it out. Originally I wanted to shoot my hand picked pepper in Lg Format, being a longtime admirer of Weston Still Life’s. His uncanny ways to compose with sensual light and form. I took several tests shots of the pepper with my iPhone in preparation to study the composition and lighting. After, I carefully laid the pepper to rest in the fridge for the following days to come. When I went to retrieve the pepper, to my surprise it had shriveled, and was no longer the luxurious candidate for what I had in mind. At first I was upset for my carelessness, but then realizing the capture is most important. Gone but not lost, here is one of my iPhone photos of the pepper…In the Image of Her.

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.
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.
