I grew up with fruit trees in the yard. Our fruit supply further supplemented by the bounty of friends', family and neighbours' yards. How far away now that seems until I come across fruit at the market that still has leaves attached to it. Here an assorted bunch of russet apples, a hybrid pear and apple and a couple of different Asian pears from local farmers at the Provincetown farmers' market create an autum still life set against the rich wood tones of my vacation studio's kitchen counter.
