Jim and Shirley brought Hachiya persimmons from their tree to the Placer Camera Club meeting the other evening. I came home with a dozen persimmons that are now ripening on my kitchen counter. They’re mouth puckeringly tart until they’re ripe and then they become a luscious mouthwatering addition to breads and cookies. I edited the photos in Topaz Texture Effects and added the same “color burst” filter to both shots.
