Peach leather

Description

Overhead shot of homemade peach fruit leather: thin, glossy amber sheets of dried peach purée rolled into sticks, three of them wrapped in parchment and tied with string, arranged on a weathered pale-blue board. Around them sit ripe whole peaches and a nectarine, a halved peach showing its golden flesh and red-tinged pit, and a few fresh slices, with a blue-checked cloth at one edge. The warm orange of the fruit leather plays against the cool blue board for a bright, summery still life.
