The chilli cam

So I decided to dust off the macro lens and take a few more photos of the developing chillies in the garden.  As convenient as the compact or camera phone are, they cannot reproduce the fantasticly shallow depth of field (or 'bokeh' for you purists) that a macro lens and larger sensor can produce.

So, enough of the technical stuff, here's some pics.
A new chilli for me, the Twilight has just started to bear fruit.
The familiar Yellow Scotch Bonnets - still not quite ripe
The consistent Loco, still going strong 
My first Black Naga. Ok, so it's not black but this rare superhot should ripen to that colour.
The colourful ornamental Prairie Fire
Ancho Poblano, a mild, smokey Mexican chilli.
