I will fit right in. Thats probably what some of my neighbors think when they see me walking around the yard staring at little things that give me ideas for Art. Thanks PJ!
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
Edward Weston
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY
Would you be willing to open them all for us and take another shot? Smile. I think this fits perfect into still life and you did a very good job here. It is not so easy to make a nuts image that good looking.
Will make a great desktop. I think they're Hazel Nuts also, so no Almond Joy here, but Witch Hazel will be ecstatic. Who's going to make all the little white jackets? Just wondered. Very creative PJ. New England vs Indianapolis as I type this. 0-0.

Strangely enough someone told me a nut joke this evening, which I am going to reproduce here:
A man walks into a bar and asks for a beer. He takes a sip and hears a voice saying 'ooh what a beautiful haircut.' Surprised, he looks around but can't see anyone. Thinking he must have imagined it, he takes another sip. 'And I do like that shirt' he hears. A bit worried, he turns to the barman and says 'Did you just hear something? I think I must be hearing things. I know there's no-one else here, but every time I take a sip of my beer I hear a voice telling me nice things." "Oh that," says the barman, "don't worry about that. It's just the peanuts - they're complimentary."
Boom Boom.
Nice shot PJ - I always love it when an experiment works.
All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

Cool still life photo! Love the colours and textures. I think I'm going to have to start taking my camera to the grocery store. People will think I'm nuts then. :)
"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius & it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm really better than them."--Marilyn Monroe
