They do look good! I think pears are often overlooked with apples, oranges and bananas being more popular. Nice shot!
Thank you so much, Denise!
My friend Laura would especially love this photo because she collects pears
😉
Thank you so much, Yvette!
😊
We had a pink flowering plum in the backyard of our old house. 😃
That must have been so beautiful
We have a flowering cherry out front that will bloom in mid spring
I bet your tree is gorgeous when in full bloom, Yvette!
Yes – it is
And one year when my boys were little – we went out to get some blooms – it was lightly raining and we were trying to make it quick – and all these petals fell on us and we went in with them – I grabbed a photo too
It just have been right around the time they were about to drop
–
Sadly though, this tree has had a trunk fungus from year one – I patched it up and the life layers were svawd – but the trunk still has issues – the tree leans – and it’s growth is very little each year – but it is holding its own (definitely a life analogy in there)
And a few times we thought about having it removed so a new one could be nurtured – but we have grown fond of this tree
We had a Bing Cherry tree in our backyard at the old house. It was already mature when we bought the house and it lived and produced for us for 15 years or so then died. We were heartbroken. We loved the cherries, and the tree. We were told they have a lifespan of 25-30 years so we figured our tree was an old one.
I hope yours keeps hanging in there for you.
That must have been so nice to have a fruiting cherry – ours is not that kind – it just flowers and besides that ten days (approx) of blooms / the tree is just so-so looking
You are such a great photographer.
Oh, thank you so much for that compliment, Jennie! 😍
You are very welcome, Deborah!
😍
Wow, that’s some shallow DOF in that shot!
LOL! I shot it at f/4. 😃
Makes me want to dig out some fruit! Nice shot, Deborah.
Nice still life, Deborah. THey look ripe and juicy.
Thank you so much, Steve! They were delicious.
Excellent composition and details! They look fresh and delish!
Thank you so much, Donna!
Beautiful photo, and they also look delicious.
Thank you so much, Judy! They were yummy.
A pleasing composition, nicely lit 😊
Thank you so much, Belinda!
Yum! I’d love one! My sort of still life…no dead roosters in sight. 🙂
LOL! Not a one! Thank you so much, Janet!
What wonderful smooth, curving shapes and graduating colors. Who would have thought pears could be such a beautiful composition. Well done, Deborah. Hugs.
Ah, thank you so much, Teagan! 🤗🤗
Nice pears, Deborah! I love the muted background and capturing the texture! You are my photo guru and inspiration 💕
Oh, you’re so kind! Thank you so much!! 😍
I love pears! Eating them and photos of them and drawing them! Lovely photo Deborah! 🍐❤️
Thank you so much, Jill! They do make good subjects. I painted one in watercolor back 2016 I keep on my sewing machine. 🍐😃
I love this one, Deborah. So simple and yet so strong.
Thank you so much, Peter!!
Nice still life! It looks like, by the size and placement of your copyright/warning that you’ve had some issues? If so, I’m sorry that has happened.
Thank you so much, Janis!
Unfortunately, I have had issues from time to time.
A lovely photo, Deborah.
Thank you so much, John!

Beautiful still life!
Thank you so much, babsje!
Lovely. And timely. I’ve been having a pear every morning for a few weeks and I’m just about to snag one.
Thank you, Dan! I went through a whole bag of them this winter.
You pared down from two pairs of pears.
LOL! I did. 🍐🍐🍐
You’re right on par with your pears.
😃
What an absolutely delightful caption for a delightful photo, I’m ALMOST tempted to say it’s a suPEAR duPEAR rePEARtee 😀
LOL! I’m glad you said it! Thank you so much!!😃😁
