Thanks all for the comments. These are especially green, some are more brownish, depends on the variety & region of origin.

I didn't realize unroasted beans were so green, either. I like the sharpness throughout the whole image. dtallakson

Very interesting. To be honest, I did not know that unroasted beans are so green. Nicely composed.

Nice.. and interesting too. Don't think I've seen them "au naturelle" or green before. (You can use this for a Christmas-card!)
