What better dessert than luscious fruit from the local orchard?

We have a small pear tree in our backyardl occasionally, it actually produces pears, and this was one of those years. I've seen a technique in rubber stamping magazines where they stamp an image, then color it with a soft wash of watercolor. I tried to imitate this using (naturally) Stamp as well as Old Photo.
...is to fill 52 themes, one a week for the year. Some weeks, maybe I'll try to find several photos to fit the themes. Others, I may spend more time trying to perfect one that seems best to represent the theme. Three years of a photo-a-day opened my eyes, now I want to hone my skills.
Somehow, a camera allows me to see more deeply and awakens the eye. For me, undertaking these year-long challenges is a way to become more aware of the world that swirls around me.
