Operatio Vegetabilis

The supermarket is for many people the sole provider of produce. We are in the lucky position to be able to maintain a garden. Even though I grew up doing those chores years of living in the city took it's toll and I unlearned a lot. Fascinatingly it is slowly coming back to me.
Now that we have a greenhouse we are able to plant earlier and more specialized vegetables that otherwise would not grow at all in central Europe climate - though that's changing fast enough...

Reaping the rewards is the best compensation for all the labor. But aside from outstandingly tasty vegetables they also look good. So I got the idea of taking pictures of some of the things we grow. I looked at a lot of images of vegetables to get some inspiration. I like minimalistic presentation so my inital thoughts went the way of showing a vegetable just in a spotlight. However I wasn't satisfied with the results when in between my initial trials I cooked up the idea of vegetable surgery. We have lots of surgical equipment at home after all. So here it is Operatio Vegetabilis.
