the entire hillside was covered with bittersweet, which is an invasive vine that tends to smother out all other vegetation... its only time to shine is during autumn when the yellow shells split open to reveal bright crimson berries...

I like the colours here. I think the background is too much the same colour as the foreground so the beauty of the berries do not stand out well. The detail in the close shot is very good.

Bittersweet isused by many around here in flower arrangements. I always have to get some each fall. I know where to go now. I will just drive my pickup there and we can load Ol' Ted up. Beautiful HF.

Beautiful color and framing. I have to be honest. I see these things everywhere and never knew what they were called. Thanks for sharing.

We have to search and search to find bittersweet here. I love it in decorations. Great clarity and I like the focus with the blurred background.
