Vegetable Pictures
Use your photo scanner to create fantastic vegetable pictures.
One container of mini-sweet peppers (in three different colors) gave me three different ideas!
I call this straight row of yellow peppers ...
'Line 'em Up'.
'A Pile of Peppers' is just that.
Although I must admit, it took a little arranging to
get them to look like this.
Who says you can't have art in the kitchen?
Peppers with Posterization
Some of my first experiences with scanography in the Auto Mode were what I call Oops. Now I know that the result has a "real" name - posterization.
These peppers are the result of one of those Oops.
See the
Oops and Uglies page for more details.
To me they look like 'The Happy Trio'.
Scanner Photography Uses
of Vegetables Pictures
Today's experts in scanner photography often use vegetables as subjects in their art.
Next time you go grocery shopping, observe the array of shapes and colors available in the produce department!
Just a few of the things these vegetable photos are good for:
- Impressive frame-able art
- Images for recipe letters to a friend
- Fun do-it-yourself kids' books and
- Educational flash cards.
More Vegetables
I made six different scans of one ear of corn. Some weren't very artistic looking! Sometimes positioning a subject takes time to look right.
I placed the ear on the scanner in many different positions.
Peeled down the leaves and moved the "silk" around to look 'just so'.
After cropping a large part of the photo away ... this is the result.
A Personal Favorite
Kale is my favorite leafy green vegetable.
Many restaurants use it strictly for decoration. Too bad.
Kale is delicious to eat!
I use it in soups as well as a vegetable side dish with a dash of vinegar.
I can imagine this photo matted in a cream colored mat and framed in dark, dark green.
Mushrooms
I know they're not technically vegetables, but veggie lovers usually like mushrooms.
So, I placed them here.
It's very important to use acetate when scanning fungi.
Otherwise, they leave a real mess on your scanner bed!
