Ah Shucks, Ma’am….

A silly photo for this first Saturday of December. (:

I took this image back in September, when I was at the well-known Santa Fe Farmer’s Market. I was looking for photos of shapes to take with my macro lens, and I found a mound of chiles (that’s how we spell it here) in a bushel basket.

I looked through my viewfinder, trying to find interesting shapes and compositions, and saw this intriguing chile. I composed an image which to me looks like he’s blushing over something the other chile said. “Ah shucks, ma’am….”

Hope there is some silliness to your weekend. (:

Taken with my 105 mm macro lens at f/4.0.

  9. heh. Very cute. I would say that personally it looks more like a Chile Pepper Facepalm to me. His little arm seems to be smacking him in the face. I almost hear him saying, D’oh!

  21. This made me laugh out loud. What a great capture! Your title fits perfectly. How perfect that you found a chile that appears to be blushing – chiles being red and all. ;) :) One of the best photos I’ve seen by you yet! Excellent!

  31. I like that you’ve found the strange and made it the focus – and funny :-)
    As an aside, I also have a macro lens (the Canon 100mm f/2.8) and absolutely love it, even for non-macro things. It’s so sharp and produces the most glorious bokeh. It seems you’re very fond of yours too.
