A variety of squash I hadn’t seen before. I should have bought one, or at least learned the name of it. I was more interested in photographing it than eating it.
I'm always amazed at how many different colours, shapes & textures pumpkins, squash & gourds come in! Here's a colourful display! Best viewed large!
A close up of a squash in the garden. The skinny, wiry tendrils help support the weight of the plant. The bristly trochees look like hair in the light.
Strange single squash from my garden.
How many animals do you see? I see a seal, a goose,and a possible walrus. :-) A fun find for me today.
Our local farm sells squash by the bushel which I find hard to resist, also I do like to keep things organised!!
I have a thing for vines...I love the simple elegance they use to get the job done!
I was also pretty happy with the bokeh colors here...there were eggplants and squash flowers in the background ; )
A big bloom that makes the honeybee inside look small. The plant was draped over a privacy fence and there were a couple of huge zucchini squash hanging on the greenbelt side of the fence. I'm not sure if the owner is aware. Click on the image for much more detail.

One of the many Squash Blossoms growing in the Hoop House. Soon we should see the fruits of our labors...we have Delicata, Spaghetti and Butternut Squash growing at the moment.

I'm not sure which squash this blossom belongs to, we'll see in a month or so.
A football-sized French variety. It was the colour of the flesh that enticed me to take it out on to our front doorstep to photograph. An even better colour when cooked.
Due to chronic poor health I'm unable to take on new contacts but do my best to reply to comments. Thank you so much for your interest, comments and favours on my photostream. Also for your good wishes. I send you joy and peace.
A French variety. Although sown late it produced 3 squashes like this one.

I was at the local farm market yesterday when the little tractor came in from the fields towing a wagon and then unloading these Carnival Squash into the bin. Fresh from the fields.
Fall butternut and acorn squash harvest is on display.
Thank you for taking the time to view my photos. They can be purchased at www.naturalworldfotos.com
Sometimes an odd squash will get hidden under the vast quantities of leaves and trailing stems. On occasion at the end of the season, as I clear away the rotting growth I come across a hidden one I'd missed. I found this one yesterday.
Thank you so much for sharing your quality photos which is a great way to see and keep some sort of toDSC06344 Hardy chrysanthemumuch with the world from home. Also for your kind comments and favours which are much valued.
I am not able to take on any more members to follow or to post to groups. I prefer not to receive invites.
One of 400 varieties of Squashes and Pumpkins grown on Franzlbauer's Pumpkin Farm, north of Vienna.
Processed and cropped for Sliders Sunday in the Pentax K-1ii, with a little additional work in Pentax Camera Utility and in SilkyPix Developer Studio.
Please view large and zoom in to see how the "water colour filter" has emphasised the sharp outlines and details of the squash and made a wash of the out-of-focus areas.

So... I was looking for something Yellow, and boy did I find lots of yellow. I will be sharing variations on this photo, so this is my starting point.
If you are not familiar with Spaghetti Squash, the flesh inside is fibrous like spaghetti, and people have substituted it for spaghetti noodles for a healthier alternative, though it really isn't the same.
I know nothing of the various squashes that we can grow and eat. My sister, in Switzerland, calls them all pumpkins, but, to me, a pumpkin is what Cinderella went to the ball in - big and orange! I know a butternut squash too of course, but what is this one? And does it actually matter?
Last fall, after the people at the Allen Farm had harvested all their different varieties of squash, I took some time to record them. I set up a mini-studio next to the squash pile and used a tripod, black velvet background, and natural light to record about 25 varieties. This is one of them.
I am amazed at how many different shapes, sizes, and colors these squash come in. Each one is an art object.
