     Hi Nicolette, Just used a piece of card to create a continuous curved background when taking the pic, so not too much mucking about in photoshop afterwards.

   Et c’est mon coeur qui fait boum…. with the English accent of course:)
   Your photo just reminded me of an old song by Charles Trenet.
   With all my love to your family,

     Hi Fatima, Lovely to hear from you. Just had to listen to La Mer (one of my favourite tunes) after you mentioned Charles Trenet. Hope all well chez-vous. N xx

     Hi Helen, sometimes I’m so busy gardening, that I don’t take time to stop and look at the more intricate marvels that I come across. When taking the pic, I was amazed at all the curves and textures, heart shapes formed by the pods and the rich coffee bean-like seeds themselves. Must spend more slow time in the garden.
