Dr. Robert Rock Belliveau, 84, is a retired pathologist in Las Vegas who spends hours squeezing fruit through a garlic press so he can photograph them under a polarizing microscope. The polarized light from the microscope results in beautiful art. Dr Belliveau has collected around 11,000 photographs.

Dr. Belliveau's setup includes a polarizing microscope and a Lumenera Infinity X-32 microscopy camera.
