Serendipity Experience 40: Share an Obsession

3:36 PM

I currently have an obsession with pears. I was actually unaware of my obsession until this morning when I looked around my kitchen and realized that I was surrounded by pears in all different shapes,sizes and forms.


I am actually quite perplexed to realise that I have this obsession. Whilst I enjoy eating pears, it is not their flavour, smell or texture that seems to appeal to me, but their actual form. Why? I do not know.


How is it, that I have sat here surrounded by this obsession for so long and yet been totally oblivous to it?

the long road

  3. I love pictures of pears, makes me want to run to the store and buy some just to take pictures of them.
    It is funny how somethings can sneak up on you though isn't it?

  5. A friend of mine has 2 beautiful pear paintings in her breakfast area. Every time I see them I think, "Such beauty in the simple things."

    LOVE the last capture!

  7. gorgeous photography, simone! i took a peek back at your last few posts and just love your touch and the capture of light!

    i can understand the pear fascination... they are beautiful, and the matte texture of their skin captures beautifully in photographs. i also love the colors they come in. they are a soft and sensuous fruit!
