In this case, it’s one red pepper among many in the produce section of the local Farm Boy store. It’s late on a grey Sunday afternoon, and as soon as I round the corner and see this perfectly lit display, I know it’s time for some spontaneous vegetable photography.
As my immensely patient and understanding wife heads to the bread section, I lean in and try to figure out the ideal way to capture the scene and the moment. The noise of the surrounding store seems to disappear as I figure out angles and composition. I’m only shooting with a smartphone, but the equipment seems to be beside the point, anyway.
It doesn’t take long to get what I want, and soon enough I’m back in the bread aisle figuring out sourdough options with a particularly lovely human. She gets why I need to hit pause every once in a while - and why a little quiet amid all the noise can be good for the soul.
