I was really into the shapes especially today. Colors always grab me, as you know.

The shade felt good.

Who knew that green peppers could be beautiful? Seriously, this is smaller than your regular collection, but they are each exquisite. Thanks for sharing.

I wanted to pay greater attention to each photo, and so of necessity, I took fewer. Also there were a few that weren't good enough to post, so I left them out.

Your wonderful comments truly validate my efforts! Thank you.

The fourth, penultimate and final photos are my favorites.

I hope you'll continue experimenting and posting new views of familiar subjects.

This effect is something I've recently discovered and I'm enjoying playing with it. I will continue to work with it and hope to get better!

I appreciate your support very much.
