Today, my friends and I went to the river to go fishing. It has been raining quite heavily over the past few days, causing the river water to become muddy. This was a good opportunity for us to catch catfish and eels.

Along the riverbank, I managed to discover a very unique fruit. This fruit is quite small, but it grows in clusters along a single stem. When it is still young, this fruit has a dark greenish-black color, but its color will change to purple when it becomes ripe. This fruit can also release a dark purple liquid that can leave stubborn stains on our clothes if it comes into contact with them.What makes me curious is whether this fruit is edible or not, and at that time, none of us dared to try it.

To capture the beauty of this unique fruit, I decided to photograph it with the help of a macro lens. And now, we can see every detail of this fruit quite clearly.

Okay friends everyone now I will share some pictures of this wild fruit here
