Fruit Salad 5-29-2017
Memorial Day gatherings always signal the kickoff to summer outdoor cooking and relaxed family picnics. Preparing a festive outdoor fruit spread gave me the perfect excuse to capture a colorful food setup before everyone dug in, using natural outdoor light under the patio umbrella to highlight fresh textures and vibrant summer colors.
The close-up photo centers on a carved fresh pineapple crown brimming with diced cantaloupe, ripe honeydew, and sweet red grapes. Slices of crisp, bright pink watermelon border the foreground, adding vibrant summer colors and refreshing fruit textures that make a fun, appetizing backdrop for monitors of any size.
