The photo is a little creepy, it does not look like a real pepper, but more like a bean bag or a sculpture. Its intriguing because at a first look it does not seem like a pepper since it does not have the normal "pepper" look, but if you look closer you can see lines and marks that are similar to other normal peppers. The top also looks like a heart, or two peoples heads coming together, it also kind of looks like a dinosour.
He used a medium format camera, a three inch by three inch negative.
