Mary Jane candies are chewy little squares made of peanut butter and molasses. Wikipedia says they were first created in 1914. There is something pleasing about the nostalgic yellow wrapper with the red stripe.

This was taken in a wonderful candy store along the riverfront strip in Savannah, Georgia. I was looking down into a large wooden barrel of these treats.

Hello Sandy,
I have thought of taking repetitive similar shots just like this. The exposure and sharpness ought to be commended. Mary Janes are a favorite, and this reminds me that I need to make a dentist appointment. Best regards...Danilo

Excellent Sandy
I love accumulations like this.
Congrats

My kind of shot:) Did you try a closer POV also?! Love seeing the jumble of shapes, colors, lettering, etc. that tells Mary Jane fans of the yummy delights within. The red pops nicely to draw attention, and the spaces between the candy shapes contain good contrast to delineate the forms well. Clear, good light, well done!
