Duchesnea indica (sometimes called Potentilla indica), known commonly by the names mock strawberry, Indian strawberry, or false strawberry, is a strawberry-like plant that has foliage and an aggregate accessory fruit similar to that of a true strawberry, though this is apparently an independent evolution of the similar fruit type. A poultice of the crushed leaves is used to treat skin ailments such as eczema. The aggregate accessory fruits are white or red, and entirely covered with red achenes, simple ovaries, each containing a single seed. They are edible, but they have very little flavor.

Started many years ago as a studio photographer and continued as a freelance one for many years. I love taking portraits, striving to catch the essence of the person I shot. I enjoy shooting landscapes of all kind: seascapes, urban landscapes as well as classical ones. My other "Can dos" include retouching, digital as well as manual, book design and artistic transformation of original pictures. If you are interested in purchasing any of my photographs in bulk, process a large corporate order or just want to customize a specific picture, please contact me and I'll be happy to help.
