In this remarkable macro photograph we see a close-up of three individual seeds on the surface of a strawberry. On Flickr, photographer Alexey Kljatov explains that the photo was created by:

“Focus stacking + averaging (10 groups with different focus, each group contains 8 identical shots for averaging). The problem with this shot was that strawberry is too glossy (I put white plastic bag around berry to diffuse daylight).”
