A photo of a baby pineapple in my yard - I have some full grown ones, but the photos did not turn out well. It is alot of fun to be able to have some of these fresh fruits growing right in our yard.

Like so many others, I've never seen a baby pineapple before. You're so lucky to have them growing in your yard.

omg .. our pineapples are a completely different colour .. ours are a yellow green colour .. these are either a totally different type of pineapple, a clever photoshop job, or unripe or something .. great shot and love your crop .. :)
edit .... ahhhh .. silly me, i should'v read your comment BEFORE posting this .. 'a baby pineapple' .. i've never seen one before .. this one might grow up to be yellow/green !!!

Wow, pineapples in your front yard? I'm jealous.

Yum! Nice shot. At that stage you can REALLY see why they're called "pine" apples -- looks JUST like a pine cone.

OK, to answer questions and respond to comments...

1) I fixed my "photo a day" link.
2) yes, they are red, turn green, and then yellow as they ripen
3) they take about 2-3 months to ripen
4) Yes, one fruit per plant.

Thanks for the comments!

wow!! There are a lot of questions in these comments!! LOL I will not be asking anything... I have a set of encyclopedia in my library :) (I am just teasing the rest of you ;)

I like the light on this photo but would like to see a hair more contrast here and there... the colouring is good and the red is certainly differentiated from the background.

This is awesome. How prolific is a pineapple plant - one fruit per plant? Yum. Great photo, too. Very pretty colors and good DOF.

Wow, I'm envious! I've never seen a pineapple on the plant before, this is very cool! Are they really so reddish? The leaves almost look like aloe, which is very common here in the desert. Beautiful!

Pineapples are the southern symbol of hospitality. :)

There is nothing quite as good as fresh, straight from the plant pineapple.

I only see those in the shop when they're grown up. Looks nice.

(btw. your "A Photo A Day" link in your profile doesn't work)
