Formal portrait of an apple
I spotted this beauty in the bowl a few minutes ago, so I made it the star of a kitchen still life

1. I drooled !!!!!!
THAT is a wonderful golden autumn pic, Mira.
Sharp, crisp colors, exquisite detail.
That gold rimmed glass is to die for, btw.

Take a bow.....well deserved.

2. Debut of the glass as well. Bought it, and three others
at Goodwill 2 days ago. Engraved glass, crystal, gold rim, each a different color heavy bottom. 25 cents each.
Almost as pretty as the apple.

5. Thanks Cassandra,
it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. I don't think I did that apple justice, it's just beautiful and startling with that stripe.
I might save this shot, once I see if I have the last bottom sliver of the apple because I might have cropped it off for the fall contest.
Alfredo says post what you yourself like and let it go, right!?

12. Thanks my friends for your kindness about the arrangement. BUT

I have lived a long time and never saw one like it.

13. My dear Mira!
What wonderful warm colors!

I have seen apples with streaks like that one, but they are unusual...

It's a great shot!

Thanks, sweetie!

15. wow
loving the predominantly golden hues of the season. The red leaf on the bottle beautifully complementing the red in the apple. Nice contrast.
