This is the lime I mentioned yesterday. I felt the need to photograph it, since it was a bit intriguing, visually, to be looking at a black colored lime. It's paired along side some discarded cuttings from a handful of gladiolas I bought at the farmer's market two weekends ago. The urge to document them meant I was hovering over the kitchen sink with a tripod, turning on and off various lights, splashing water on the stems, manually combining droplets all in the name of getting just the right composition.

There are times that I think if one were to watch me set up a shot,
he or she would deem me quite silly in all my efforts.
