Hi Lou, I like the way the background makes the fig looks like it's racing through space like in Star Trek. The fig looks great, as well. ~james

The picture reminds me of eating a fresh, sweet, earthy orange right off the tree with just my hands - nice and juicy!

This reminded me of dinner... crap 9 PM and still needing to get dinner. Anyone have some fresh and ripe fig to converse with?

I can't put in into words that would give you an idea how good it was. In fact it caught me by surprise. I was sitting outside in front of my garage and I looked over to my left towards my fig trees and spotted this fig staring back at me. I just planed on opening it up and eating it but when I did eat the first half I thought I should share it with all of you besides my camera was in my shirt pocket. James that background is the top of my wife's roasting pan that she had just washed --remember the old enamel ones? There are more on that tree and I hope they are all that tasty. Lou

James! It does look just like it's flying through outer space! It even has two streaks coming from it, but it's a work of art, Lou. I hope all those figs will be delish. :) The title of the picture should be--Figs in Space--The taste will send you into orbit! noss

Here's the white one, picked from the former Pane e Vino restaurant a couple years ago. Here's the dark and the white. I picked a few days ago.
