pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

popculturecooking:

In the first year I had the apple tree, children were stealing all the apples, so on the last one I put a post-it note saying ‘please leave this one’. I began to photograph it – not really as a project, but it was just an intuitive reaction because every day I walked past this developing growth, and these ripening apples. That is typical for how I work, that things often only afterwards turn out to be serious, and I don’t ever plan them as that.
