Found these potato plants in the garden, surprise, we have potatoes already! Almost no amount of digging was required, except a little to bring the camera to a level where I could capture both below ground and above it. Editing was simple, I cropped a little, boosted the saturation a little to bring out the greens, and that was it.

I think I would like to see the whole potato. Nice idea.

nice angle! Remember the burnt out area right top takes the eye away from the topic. A little sharper pic, especially on the potato would have made a big improvement 7

Nice cross section and I like the shamrocks there too. 6

I was wondering if anyone would do a shot like this. IT turned out ok, but the blown sky highlights are a bit distraction. Maybe cropping out the top inch of the photo would have helped.

Bit of distracting fuzziness on the right lower side. Nice crop.
