Passion Fruit Photography

Passion Fruit Photography are photographs of an incredible flower and fruit. The history of this fruit shows that Catholic missionaries in the 16th century Brazil named the native fruit after the appearance of the flower from which it comes. The passion flower’s individual features were found to be symbolic of the crucifixion of Christ, or as known in biblical, the passion of the christ. The flower has spikes protruding from the center, symbolising the crown of thorns. There are ten petals, for the ten faithful apostles. Three stigmata symbolise the tree nails and five anthers represent the five wounds. The flowers trailing tendrils were likened to whips.
