Taken with the Nikon D80 18-55mm F3.5. Zoom, (F5.4.) for a shallower DOF. Self timer. My hair, naturally wavy, is worn up. The red pear is a Star Krimson pear. Minor desaturation in post editing to even out my uneven tan. Tone editing to brighten up the photo and color balancing in post editing.

"La Poire" means pear in French.

    Love the colorful simplicity of the shot. The red pear really provides a nice visual impact to the otherwise soft tones and lines. Good eye and a wonderful vision that you bring to these pleasing images. Nicely done.

    The color is just perfect in this. The composition is awesome also. I love that it's in the rule of thirds category, because she were in the middle it would be boring.
    Good job.
