 Summer in florida - it's difficult to find cold weather products like fresh peas. These are imported from South America, and aren't very full.

The open pod is being held up by a bent paper clip. The pods at the base are covering the rest of the clip.

Lit from the back, with a reflector in the front-left to add light to the front.

This is awesome!!! I could envision this one in a simple matted frame hanging on the wall of a contemporary kitchen. Its so clean and crisp, and I love the backlighting on the one pod standing up. Only one teeny tiny hot spot on the one laying down, but awesome job anyway! 9

Beautiful. The centering of the standing pod bothers me, though.
