Red Hot


006:365: Homegrown

This was the second ripe tomato from the tomato plant which is part of the deck-level garden that my eldest daughter and her grandmother started in the week after our twins were born. Grandma rightly thought that my daughter might need something for which she felt particularly responsible.

This photo is my photo of the day, but it also serves as part of a series of photos that said daughter has requested for her room: a series that includes a close-up of a half a red cabbage and rhubarb slices.

  1. Beautiful! I love the shadows and soft puply hues of the surface the tomato is sitting on. What is it sitting on?

  2. It's one of our plates...it looks grey in most lights, but something about the light in this shot gave it that hue.

  3. That's really wonderful colour. Poster material for sure.
