As one of those people who in general doesn’t like kale – you can imagine how surprised I was to discover that I love photographing kale. I found some wonderful Purple Kale at my local flower wholesaler and took it into the studio. At first – I photographed the bunch of kale and then the individual stalks. When I pulled out my macro lens and went in close on the textures and layers in the kale – I fell in love with it! So now every time we head back to the flower wholesaler I’m on the lookout for more kale to photograph (but I’m still not likely to cook with it!!!)

Having fallen in love with kale when I photographed it – I’m wondering if I might discover some to virtues to other vegetables I’m not fond of eating if I take them into the studio too 🙂
