pears encore

i love pears, especially when it is accompanied by thinly sliced really old cheese, like a seven-year old cheddar or an extra old gouda cheese.

in 2012 i had shot some pears emulating a painting that was hanging in our old office. http://365project.org/summerfield/365/2012-01-19

Putting the fruit on to the black background makes it into a beautiful dutch still life!

[jerry plume]

this is gorgeous! Awesome still life!

[Osia Strasner]

Beautifully lit pear still life!! Definitely like a painting! Great finale for the ONS challenge!

[Sassik]

Lovely still life! The odd one out pops nicely and adds interest!

[Tara]

Fantastic still life. Fav

[Claire]

As soon as I saw this I remembered your other work of art; I am not overly keen on pears as I tend to look like one:0(

[Sally Ings]

Love this. When i first saw this I thought "now that would make a fabulous painting!"

[June]

Wonderful photo of the pears, love the way they are arranged for the still life. It does look like a painting!

[Leslie]

Beautiful capture. Like the one green pear. I've done apples an cheese but not pears and cheese. Will definitely try them together .

Nice capture.

[Sally Ings]

@summerfield I have been thinking about doing a very similar still life but with apples. I think I might now go with pears as they have such an interesting shape. I hope that they are still available in the shops!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I love this- especially with the cool black background! fav

[summerfield]

@salza - if you don't have pears anymore, i can send you some of my shots. :-)
