I just recently returned from the California Rare Fruit Growers "Festival of Fruit" in Santa Barbara California where I spoke about photographing tropical fruits.  It has been sometime since I have left south Florida and experiencing a new place is always refreshing.  The pictures below are  Malpighia glabra L., Barbados cherry, and were taken at Lara Farms.
