I liked the bright colors and he repeating circles (the ends of the cardboard tubes). Also the rougher textures of the wood contrasting with the smoother stone background.

Still life
We had some friends over for lunch last weekend and as we were clearing up I noticed the remains of a salad on one of my wife’s many blue and white dishes.
Although I wasn’t the least bit sad the bright colors made me feel cheerful. I liked the bright red of the tomato; the bright blues of dish; the emerald green of the basil leaf and the more muted yellows and greens of the beans and the lime. All against the greys of of our counter top.
Sweet grape tomatoes???
I have a weakness for quirky signs and when I saw this one I couldn’t resist it so out came the iPhone (the only camera I had with me at that time). These are certainly the strangest looking “Sweet Grape Tomatoes” I’ve ever seen. Maybe some kind of heirloom tomato?
Onions in a nest
There was a sign next to this pot explaining what kind of onion this is. Unfortunately, I didn’t take a picture of the sign or otherwise note down the information. I have a vague memory of it saying that this particular type of onion is native to South Africa (I might not have remembered this correctly though). If I get a chance I’ll stop by, check and update this post.
I liked the round shapes and the smooth and rough textures. I also like the way the onions appear to be in a nest made from the surrounding greenery.
Seating arrangement
Interesting arrangement of objects seen in a nearby garden. I’m a sucker for rocking chairs.
