Curves of Garlic

Every season has it’s share of natural beauty.  The fall, known for its vibrant colors shows off the brilliant beauty of the trees before losing their glorious coats as well as the  wonderful earthy hues of autumn’s harvest.

During my visit upstate last weekend I found some really beautiful colors and shapes at a farm stand that I visited. The green curves made by the stems of garlic that lay displayed in a basket caught my attention, as did a display of multi-colored squash in all different shapes and sizes. Deep purple peppers with their green stems resting in a basket along side the better know red and yellow ones, made a still life worthy of an artist.
