Pear

Hi Dominic

These are both lovely images. The repaired Pears are great and really suit the soft muted look you have given them.
The colour grading " if that's the term" is really pleasing too.

Topping it all for me is the choice of pear shapes and there placement to each other.

Your right to be pleased with these.

I absolutely love these images, Dominic. So much so, I immediately went on Flickr to see your other treasures. The first one is my favorite of the two. It is painfully funny and both images are very well crafted. I am not sure that in the current shape this is a compete, well composed serie. The images on Flickr would not do it either, I think. The concept is brilliant though and it is well worth expanding upon.

Missed these at first - I must admit I really like these shots, particularly the first with "frankenpear" and his bride...

As an aside - I think that pears are just a delight to work with, and are potentially one of the most "characterful" of fruits...

Thank you muchly. I agree, pears have a certain look to them. They aren't a uniform shape, unlike apples, lemon etc.

Yes, rusty staples would probably work well. I wish I'd laid some loose staples around the base.
