 Close up macro of a pistachio nut. I barely licked it to give it a wet look. That's probably why the skin looks more like a strip of bacon on a green pepper!

Effort to clean sensor before the shoot was not done, lots of sensor dust.

That is a great macro - wouldn't have expected pistachio so look a little bit slimy though

Nice abstract skin. Great texture. I would crop the top a little more to get rid of the black corner on the left and top.

Looks really weird in that much detail, never would have guessed what it was.
Great detail & nice idea
