1. La Brea Tar Pits? JK. Farmer's Market. The raspberries are gorgeous!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. Of course it's La Brea Tar Pits, dear Curt!

You made me laugh!

I like how those turned out too. I keep trying to get as close as I possibly can! Fill the lens!

Thanks so much, dear Curt.

11. I have often heard the very best growing medium for vegetables is hot tar. LOL!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Wow, that's crazy! LOL is right! nt

[Walleye]

2. Berries look delicious 😋

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Thanks so much, my dear Walleye! They are always great, but fragile.

3. Yumm... I love CO's winter weather, but darn, that would be nice to have that this time of year.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. Thanks so much, my dear hlthe2b!

I don't think I could handle CO's winter weather.

Here, rain is the worst thing we encounter. I stay home if it's raining!

9. Ooooh, those berries!

I live on berries in season, thus my winters are long. Beautiful pictures!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. So glad you love the berry photos, my dear 2naSalit! Thanks for your lovely remarks. ♥ nt

[Callalily]

13. Wow! Quite a fruitful Farmer's Market!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. It truly was, my dear Callalily!

I made sure to buy some berries before I started snapping photos! I always buy from this vendor. Their produce is great!

14. La Brea tar pits was an answer on Jeopardy the other night and I knew the question

Because of MissCaliforniaPeggy! (in reference to post #1)

Your closeups are so beautiful and clear! I enjoy seeing all that fresh produce this time of the year. In Ohio we got snow.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. Aw, thank you for telling me, my dear Diamond_Dog! And good for you, knowing the question.

I've been practicing doing closeups. Andy always encouraged me to fill the lens, and I love doing it.

It's really fun!

Thanks for your lovely comments too.

[niyad]

17. Beauty pagaent, yes?? Because those certainly are quite beautiful!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. Aw, my dear niyad! What a lovely thing to say.

I'd hoped to get great images, and it looks as though I must have.

Thank you.

[Bundbuster]

19. Your closeups are fabulous with such rich colors

You could have handled Colorado's winter weather today. It was 68 degrees in Denver, a record for the date.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. 68 degrees? I sure could! That's a pretty normal wintry temperature for us.

Thank you, my dear Bundbuster, for your kind comments.

I love saturated colors along with getting the closeup.

Sometimes it's a challenge but I like that!

[Gato Moteado]

21. great shots, peg!

that 3rd photo looks like what they call ground cherries in the southeast....i think i've heard them referred to as gooseberries in the US as well, but you rarely see them. here in costa rica they are called uchuvas and they grow everywhere. they're delicious.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. Thanks so much, my dear Gato!

Yes, gooseberries are what we call them here. I've had them, and for me, they didn't taste the way I'd thought they would.

I'm really pleased that my photos passed muster with you.
