It was time to thin the carrots, so I ended up harvesting some tiny ones, along with a few radishes. They are very sweet and yummy! I decided to try some veggie portrait photography.

Remember when you were a kid, and your parent(s) lined you up (if you had any siblings) and said, “Say cheese!” or whatever your family tradition was to get those annual holiday photos?

Our tradition for posed photos was me trying to get our three kids to smile and look “natural” while my husband made faces and gesticulated (don’t ask!) behind my back. Sometimes I got lucky with candids, which I prefer.

It’s hard to take candid photos of veggies once they are picked though, isn’t it? These carrots and radishes need their faces washed, as all youngsters often do. But they sure are cute anyway!
