"STRIPED and FRUITY" Theme

“Home is the nicest word there is.” ~ Laura Ingalls Wilder

Thanks for your comment on my "M" post yesterday; it landed in the #2 spot.

The debut of our April (2014) table setting........

SOOC, uncropped, manual mode with no pp - brand new super sharp lens that I received on Friday, March 8, 2014 - loving it!!

I photographed this in "Big M" mode with no pp. I've read that shooting in "Big M" mode allows the photographer control over everything (shutter speed, aperture, and ISO), but I didn't manually change any settings. I just set the dial to "M" and snapped away.

Also, I decorated this table before the month of March ever ended. Why? Our March (2014) table setting decor was commissioned for use at a friend's house for a book club get-together on the day this photo was taken; so after clearing the table of its decor, I decided to decorate it for April. With the exception of the placemats and napkins, all other accessories have been featured in previous table settings.

Have a "fruitful" day and a great start to the work week!
