WOW WOW WOW! Great job! i love it ! I love the way you are capture the berries - wow just great .Fab!

Hey! Cool pic. I, well my parents, have some of these in my/our/their backyard. Nice one...

wow! rich colours and a beautiful capture of this tree. There is slight blurring to the right so maybe crop off a bit there, but otherwise stunning photograph - the contrast is very good. Patti

what a beautiful thing!! good job with this.

It's so colorful, PJ. The red group in the front is so clear and the composition is nice. I do agree, a bit wider dof would have left more in focus but nevertheless, this is pleasing! - Patty

WOW, PJ. The close up and clarity of the red berries in the front sure is terrific among the green. Like the lighting and composition very much. You've captured a great part of this Ash. I didn't know they had these berries. Excellent post an thanks for sharing it.

I've tried to take pictures like this and it never works -- I can't get my camera to focus on anything., But you captured that big, fat cluster just right -- and the edges don't matter, because that's where my icons are.

Very nice PJ! I love that bright red against the green background! Those "berries" really grow in big bunches dont they?? Are those edible? Pretty shot!

A pretty post! The red berries look great against the green backdrop of lush leaves.

Beautiful picture. I think this is the same we had in Sweden. Latin name is Sorbus aucuparia. We do rowanberry jelly and it´s very good :) It said that if it is many rowanberry in a tree, the winter comes with planty of snow.
Anyway it is a great work.

the red really explode from the green beautiful and well done

What a beautiful ash and what a clear, well positioned photo it is!

uau, so colorfull, excellent!! :D

What a great shot, like the angle looking up, never saw these before.

Incredible sharp image, the red does stand out as well, great wallpaper !

Beautiful capture PJ, the clarity and colours are great and the whole scene makes me kind a hungry (lol), well done, I'm keeping it

Hummmm...of all the traveling I did up through New England I missed seeing these. They are beautiful. That cluster right up front is super. I would have cropped away the whole right side of the composition. It seems to want to pull my eye away from the main thing...the beautiful cluster up front. Great capture.

Hi PJ, this is truly beautiful, the reds and greens are just great together! The tree looks so healthy! The wood of the tree is often used in place of oak, isn't it, when making furniture and other great things of wood! Oak is so expensive! You know PJ, I have never been to the East coast in my life, what a lovely experience it would be! I have been to the west coast often, but have missed seeing your nick of the woods, maybe someday! Very nice photo my dear, good job PJ! Sincerely, Marilyn

outstanding capture!

Amazing color and clarity! I'm so impressed with this close up. Just beautiful!

Love the rich colors in this one! So bright and clear.

Marvellous shot, great colours & focusing

Interesting winter bird buffet in the works....such a deep lovely red very nice!! Its a "mystery" this here tree so beautiful yet so sour.
Cida ;)

That's one prolific ash. A big ash pod of berries! Like the colors and clarity, PJ. Thanks for sharing.

Great shot> I love the colors.
Vic

Terrific shot PJ ..These are hard to get a shot of ... camera never seems to want to focus on what you want it too .. Love the colors

Well, thanks everyone for all your comments and I was trying to get a macro of the front bunch and its leaves while showing the abundance of fruit that this tree has..when my puter gets out of the hospital, I'll take it to PS and see if I can blur out the background just a tad, so that my intent becomes clearer :)PJ

PJ, this is beautiful! Am anxious to see what you do with it when your puter gets back home! Very nice shot just as it is, though.

Hi,
Beautiful,colourful & nice shot too

Very nice colors and composition...kind of reminds me of Christmas :)

Lovely image that brings back memories. I had two of these beautiful trees in my yard for years when they suddenly and inexplicably died. As a bird fancier it was quite a loss. Besides losing the beauty of those berries I lost some regular visitors that loved to pick at them during the season. Beautiful trees ... beautiful birds ... lost so suddenly. Anyway you've done a first rate job of presenting them with this posting and I thank you for allowing me to relive some wonderful moments.

...ahhh, where is the bottom of this page...? -how many comments. :-))
You know why? Because your image is GREAT. I like it too...
The colours composition such as "Mexican-colours" :-))
Nice shot PJ...

Another beautiful image. This is wonderful PJ! Love the vibrant red against the greens.

Lovely colors, lucky you to get to see them so close! I don't think ours locally have been that prolific. Wonderful focus and capture!

well, i know a few people's yards that get kinda wild, especially on a friday night, when the weather's nice :P you've gotten just the right hue on these red whatever they are..nice going
