Saw this fruit while shopping for groceries last Saturday, and knew I had to 
buy it and photograph it.
I had never heard of nor seen this plant before.
Numbers one and two are my favorites, but I like all of these variations.  
The first might be
the scariest.  Shot on my roll-top desk with 60 watt desk lamp, a couple of 
dental mirrors,
and the back of my Obama T-shirt for backdrop.

On film, with two different cameras.  I have to use film for B&W; converting 
digital color just
doesn't feel right  ;~)
