Eggplants fill the foreground of a market table, glossy near-black globes piled against slender ones striped in purple and cream. Behind them sit red and golden beets with their stems trimmed, a hand-lettered sign reading BEETS $5 propped against a burlap sack. Baskets of long red chiles line the back of the table, and a second hand-lettered eggplant sign sits at the lower right edge of the black produce crate.
The Crooked Roots Farm booth at the Longmont Farmers Market on a September morning, shot at 40mm and f/8. I held the exposure back a little to keep the highlights on the dark eggplant skins from blowing out, since those reflections are what give the black ones their shape at all.
Crooked Roots is a small Boulder County farm growing vegetables alongside eggs, lamb and pork. The striped eggplants sitting next to the black ones is the whole picture... same plant, completely different surface.
Spent some time hosing down the dining chair cushions. I’m surprised how much grime actually came off. They’re still fucking gross, but definitely less so. I also put together the cushion storage and hung the tent lights. When the cushions dry, I’ll put on the covers and take some proper photos. This is almost exactly what I had in mind when I started this project. It still has that potential - I just need to save up the money to replace the ruined furniture and put in some plants. It makes me want to have guests. I’m so proud of this.
