A Taste of Summer

My mother's garden is a magical place. She can coax from the Earth bloodred tomatoes and peas lined up like a regiment of soldiers inside their pods.
So (of course) I consider it my civic duty to take pictures of said magical place.
Ecclesiastes 2:5-6 I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees:





And just for kicks, a totally unrelated picture I had lots of fun editing. :)

  3. I love the ones of the strawberries and potatoes.

    What do use to watermark and edit your photographs?

    Love,

  11. These are brilliant pictures! I am definately jealous of your garden. We tried a garden last summer. Unfortunately, we planted it in the wrong spot so it got ZERO afternoon sun. Our house location & our neighbor's large trees don't help. I'll just live vicariously through your photos. :-)

    Love,
