It's a sunny late July day and here are my photos from the MB Farmer's Market:

1. Stunning photos, Peggy!

The food pictures made me hungry.🤗

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Thanks so much, my dear gademocrat7, for your lovely remarks!

Heck, they make me hungry too! I need my lunch, NOW!

[LoisB]

3. Wow, Peggy. These are stunning photographs. That tree (?) in the second photograph is

beautiful. Your photography skills are awesome.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Thank you so much, my dear LoisB!

The tree is manmade and a tribute to the sea and its creatures (I think!). It caught my eye today.

[LoisB]

13. Great artistry. It is very eye-catching.

[Biophilic]

4. I do love your farmer market photos.

The vividness and subjects make me feel like I’m there. The berries are glorious. Thanks for sharing.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Ah, my dear Biophilic, thank you! I'm glad you do.

It's always my pleasure to share!

Those blueberry tarts look irresistible.
I always look forward to your farmer's market photos.
Thank you for sharing.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. Thanks so much, my dear anciano!

I was also very pleased with these. Those flowers and the berries! The blueberry tarts are new. They look sooooo good.

And you're welcome!

8. Berries n berries on pastry 😋 Think I'll get a sub for dinner! Your close ups are amazing..more defined lately

Love the sunflower as I’ve adopted it in support of Ukraine 🇺🇦

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. Thanks for your great remarks, my dear Deuxcents!

You have figured out one of my post-processing secrets . . . as if!

I've discovered that upping the contrast can often help define the photo better. It doesn't always work, but when it does! It's great.

I feel the same about the sunflowers and my support for Ukraine.

9. Oh, CaliforniaPeggy, what a great selection!

I, too, look forward to your photographs! Thank you for sharing them with us.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. Thank you so much, my dearMIButterfly!

I'm very pleased that you like what I gave you today. It's a real boost to my psyche.

[surfered]

10. Looks great. A good day!

Better than ours. Flying back to the Gulf Coast after a month in the much cooler Pacific NW. The Portland Airport is being remodeled, so the hike from returning the rent car, to ticketing, and the gate of departure seemed like the Bataan Death March.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

23. I'm glad my photos gave you a moment of respite, my dear surfered!

That hike sure did sound way too strenuous. Hope you can rest when you get home.

[IrishAfricanAmerican]

11. Mmmmmmmm!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. That mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm says it all! Thank you, my dear IrishAfricanAmerican!

[SheltieLover]

15. What is 8th one from top, under those gorgeous berries?

Lovely pix, Peggy! Ty for sharing.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. Thanks so much, my dear SheltieLover, for your lovely remarks!

That is a loaf of bread, seen from the cut end.

I found it fascinating!

[SheltieLover]

32. Wow!

Ty!

[eppur_se_muova]

16. Mmmmmm .... berries. nt

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. Thank you for the hilarious graphic, my dear eppur_se_muova!

I love the caption!

Glad you enjoyed the berry photos.

[JMCKUSICK]

22. Thanks for the wonderful torture CaliforniaPeggy

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. You're entirely welcome, my dear JMCKUSICK! lol

I didn't know torture could be wonderful . . .

[JMCKUSICK]

30. When you post pics of beautiful Torts, Breads, Danish, etc....

all the stuff I don't have access to here, it qualifies as torture. Wonderful, drool worthy, yummy torture. I told my roomie just a few moments ago that if I was where you are, I'd be flat broke all the time because your farmers markets would drain me lol.
Thank you.

[orangecrush]

24. Hungry now

Beautiful pics

Thanks!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. I'm sorry you're hungry now, my dear orangecrush!

But I am glad it's because of my photos.

[bucolic_frolic]

31. Such pastries, grinders, hoagies, subs

Making me hungry again.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

33. I'm so sorry, my dear bucolic_frolic!

Maybe I should post a warning: Please eat something before proceeding!

It really is a remarkable market.

[bucolic_frolic]

34. Yes it is remarkable.

I should venture further afield here, we have Amish markets, maybe not quite the array of vegetables but they have baked goods, herbs and spices, home made ice creams, roast chicken, pork.

Thanks, CaliforniaPeggy, you're doing just fine!

[George McGovern]

35. Image number seven -- Fresh Berries!!! All Good Peggy!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

39. Thanks so much, my dear George!

I always shop there even though I rarely photograph anything they have. I have a lot of berry photos! But today I caught a glimpse of the scene you see here, and I had to photograph it!

Glad you enjoyed!

[MysteriousStranger]

37. Love

going to market with you! Thanks for the pastries this week.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

40. Thank you, my dear MysteriousStranger! Cool name you've got there.

And I appreciate your speaking up. I do like to know who's looking.

[Diamond_Dog]

38. TY Peggy! Beautiful photos as always!

Those leaves in the first photo look like they’re dragging from the heat!

Love your cropping on the pale green flowers.

The pastries and sandwiches are making me humgry!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

41. You're welcome, my dear Diamond_Dog!

Our summer hasn't been very hot--yet! I just wanted to show something a little different today, and that tree was right where I was walking.

I was mesmerized by the pale green flowers. I had to post both of them since I liked them so much!

The pastries and sandwiches are just to die for!
