Some zerene focus stacked shots of Romanesco broccoli - a wonderful natural example of fractal geometry. Hopefully it will taste as good as it looks in a pasta dish tonight.

I particularly like the viewpoint in the first image.

Looks delicious, LordV.

I like the second image especially. Would make a nice wallpaper.
