About a year ago I bought a Jamie Oliver Chilli plant from
our local Homebase store. I’m still not really sure why. I don’t particularly
like chilli’s and besides which, the plant cost me £8. I was probably thinking
it would look quite exotic on our deck and it did produce a fair few chilli’s.
To say they were hot wouldn’t be doing them credit.
Whilst lazing on
the deck one rare sunny afternoon I was drawn to the fact
that the orange and reds of the chiili’s looked fantastic. I decided to photograph the plant against the
deep blue sky thinking it was a good time to pull out my long forgotten polarizer.
Pleased with the images I uploaded them to my stock site,
Alamy, and forgot all about them until last month when I was notified that one of
the images had sold. I’d attached a Royalty Free licence to the shot and it went for $292 I don't receive all of that). I’ve no idea who bought it but I expect it will probably turn up
in a cookery or gardening book somewhere. Every cloud.....!
