no berries yet but the bushes are lushly green :) here i was playing with a 107cm diffuser light disk to cast a soft light onto the bush to take the worst highlights out of the exposure during the harsh noon day sun. handheld macro f3.5 1/160 70mm focal length, shot from almost the closest focus point. I was looking for a soft restful image. I like the interesting shapes in the bokeh hope you agree :)

nice DOF here, but the composition's a bit roomy for my taste...try tightening it a little...or not ;o)

I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band, I saw a needle that winked its eye. But I think I will have seen everything When I see an elephant fly. MY GALLERY

oh i like this! i like how out of the norm it is...makes it much much much more intersting. i really do agree about the bokeh..didnt know there was a term for it. love the colors and the lighting and the contrast. just a really interesting capture...great work! ~abby

This came up in the voting booth and I gave a high mark. I like how you have done the depth of field...looks like an impressionist painting. Well done.

Quite interesting how the throns of the bush just seem to come out of nowhere. It holds power.
