Las Cruces Farmers Market: The Food


The homework assignment this week for my Digital Photography course was to take photos of food, so a stroll through the Las Cruces Farmers Market this past Saturday was just perfect. It's too bad that I didn't get photos of the green chile spring rolls that Beez is still talking about.

It will be interesting to see what we learn to do as far as editing our food photos. Be sure to click on any photo to enlarge it slightly.



Radishes



Dried chile ristra



There were all kinds of herbs ready to plant



Grass for cats?



The kettle corn man stirs a batch while his customers line up, drawn by the delicious smell



Bean sprouts



I like the way the colorful tablecloth was reflected in these jars of honey



Honey warmed by the sun




Even though the bags say "Onions" they were filled with dried red chiles

I have a small market near my beach place. I love going there. Yours look so nice ... so, what did you buy ?

I get handmade soap & flowers from mine. And, a few apples too.

JC, we got some red chile honey! It is amazing, nice and hot, and probably a little addictive. I hope it will help me with the new allergies I seem to have acquired here.

Hi there....just came over to visit from the 7MSN. I love your farmer's market photos, 'specially the one of the kettle corn man! I have started a kettle corn biz too and our first job/pleasure will be the Issaquah Farmer's Market on 4/10. Love the idea with the mirror...hmmm, need to try that!
