you will encounter the individualist everywhere! One who does not ‘follow’, is innovative and creative, not once but continuously?
I often get the comment: ‘simple’ on my images, LOL. Yes that makes me smile, I remember Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly and so many more, … it looked so simple and easy what they did, you know, like you could get up and dance in the same way… NOT! I experience the same with my work… it gets copied and tried, never seem to achieve that same depth, the tonalities, the richness and the emotion. I get asked repeatedly for workshops and tutorials. For which I have no time I’m happy to say, so much work, euhh, rephrase that, pleasure and fun?
What you see in my images is the years of experimenting, the years of studying, the years of experience!
Thanx for your time and comments, greatly appreciated, M, (*_*)

Physalis (du grec phusalis, vessie, en raison de la forme de son calice) est un genre de plantes de la famille des Solanacées. On les appelle couramment Amour en cage, Lanterne japonaise (ou hōzuki au japon)
Propriétés.
Bien qu'elle contienne un peu d'alcaloïdes, cette plante n'est pas toxique. Tout au plus faut-il se méfier des fruits non mûrs qui peuvent occasionner des désagréments intestinaux. Les fruits mûrs (riches en caroténoïdes) sont comestibles et peuvent être utilisés en confitures, compotes et gelées.
Physalis is characterised by the small orange fruit similar in size, shape and structure to a small tomato, but partly or fully enclosed in a large papery husk derived from the calyx. The berry also goes by the names Golden Strawberry,Chinese Lantern and Cape gooseberry.
Not all Physalis species bear edible fruit. Select species are cultivated for their edible fruit, however; the typical Physalis fruit is similar to a firm tomato in texture, and like strawberries or pineapple in flavour, with a mild acidity.
Physalis fruit is a good source of vitamin C, beta-carotene, iron, calcium and trace amounts of B vitamins. These fruits contain 18 kinds of amino acids .
These berries are also abundant in polysaccharides, compounds that may help fortify the immune system.

Looking through to the other side of the tiny physalis. A defining feature of Physalis is a large, papery husk derived from the calyx, which partly or fully encloses the fruit. Also referred to as physalis, groundcherries, husk tomatoes, husk cherries, poha berries, and golden berries. (Wikipedia)
About 2cm/0.79 inches across. Natural light. About f/8 with the Laowa 60mm f/2.8 2X ultra macro lens and dollops of vegetable glycerin in spots to meet the theme for Macro Mondays and #liquid. But since the liquid barely shows, I’ll do another macro ;-)
