Here is a little series I shot. I wanted to experiment with composition and colour for an upcoming project. Pink and orange are two colours that sometimes really compliment each other depending on the hue you use. I really like how sculptural those clementine's leaves looked.

I took inspiration for this recipe from a few recipes online, and then halfway through I decided to call the restaurant and ask how they did it, I got a few tips from the very kind chef! +++ YOU WILL NEED: - 500g spinach leaves - 250g fr
