I know this looks like I have over-done it with the saturation, but I have not touched anything as this is how it was presented in a Jamboree festival in Georgetown, Penang in Malaysia. It was a festival of local hoteliers and their chefs to put on their best displays. These are all fruit intricately carved, which you must admit must have needed alot of creativity and patience to do. They look almost good enough to eat!

The intricately carved fruit is a art on its own Ann. Lovely and very colourful image. Really beautiful.

This sings a Malay song. The vibrant colors and painstakingly detailed work shout about their roots. Thanks for sharing.

I'm sure that the yellow light shining on them has something to do with the bright colors...what intricate carvings. Lovely to see!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
