dried peas


after my sweet peas were all finished up in the backyard garden, i left the vines in place to dry out, intending to harvest the dried peas for this spring's seeds. there really weren't very many, and i'm not even convinced that we'll grow peas again this year. but, the dried pods are so beautiful that i have to document.

so, i don't have much to say about it, just wanted to kick off winter, a season whose quiet, unique beauty is often portrayed in dried things, by showing off my peas. so pretty.

  1. what a beautifully composed picture as well! Have you thought of adding an RSS feed button to your blog? Then you would show up in my google reader every morning and I could see more of your pretty pictures. :)
