These are some pictures of the home grown lemons that I've picked and put on my windowsill at home. I like their varying shapes and ways that the light, both natural and artificial, hits them. It reminded me of a Hollis Frampton film where a lemon is treated to a gradual eclipse of light- from an outline of the lemon, to full exposure and to a silhouette. For now the lemons have become a part of the decor and are subjected to changes in day light and my own routine (turning the light on when it gets dark, etc). Maybe I've subconsciously had lemons on my mind since watching the film on Youtube last week or maybe its because we've been inundated by a good crop of lemons this winter(?).
