Finger Lime Caviar & Passionfruit Seeds
Interior macro texture details from my Food Jewels Series.

I love how lustrous the caviar and seeds are in both fruits like beautiful natural jewels.

Coral Tooth Mushrooms Photo macro texture revealing the coral like forms of these amazing fungi that in my imagination also look like soft snow flakes. These ones are homegrown.

What do you imagine?

The collection includes macro textures and creative still life compositions of full fruitings of these mushrooms that resemble miniature oceanic landscapes.

❤️Red Lychees are a symbol of love, happiness & good fortune - my wish for all of you this Christmas 2025❤️

Lychees are in season in Summer in Australia and often part of Christmas celebrations. At our house lychees do not last long usually eaten fresh as soon as thay arrive in the kitchen. Sometimes I preserve a few in shrubs and use in drinks and cocktails, but not this time. I actually had two attempts at photographing these: the first batch were eaten up straight away after school by my boys proudly sticky with lychee juice.

These close up details are from my Red Food Jewels Series photographed on black satin and velvet. The first two framed with vintage silver, others in the series use red velvet and smaller lychees.

If you are curious to see the whole form and texture of the dragon lychees you can view the full series on my portfolio link in my Linktree (in bio) or visit: https://www.shutterstock.com/g/peck+of+pickles/sets/327365632

❤️Merry Christmas - wishing you love, happiness & good fortune.❤️

Your kind words in my Guestbook - about the photos, the living fungi and my wonderful hosts Edwina, Ant and the whole team at That Plant Shop - mean the world to me.

🍄the photos: creative, detailed, inspiring
🪴the space: sensual, perfect, beautiful

Who would have thought that a simple moment - being captivated by the beauty of homegrown pink oyster mushrooms and photographing them - could lead to such warm interpersonal connections through photography. It truly feels like a dream come true.

Special & heartfelt thanks to:
