Early Christmas

(f11, 4/10, 50mm, ISO 160)


Don't you think this shot could be used to introduce the Christmas season with the red berries against the green moss.

The biggest of these berries might be 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) but no bigger - I love macro shots. This was taken this morning out hunting for some nice fall colors to take photos of. We were a little disappointed on the fall colors, maybe a week too early in that area, but still got some beautiful shots, like this one. I'll be sharing more soon.

Don't be shy - leave a comment or email me.  I look forward to hearing from you!

It is way too early for fall where I live. Wow, you are seeking out the colors already? I really like your macro shot, and yes I love them too. Great bold colors going here Scott.

Hi Scott! This is a great shot! I was taking early Christmas card pictures last week too, with spruce boughs and water drops. :o)

I am looking forward to seeing your fall colours! Every fall I wish it would last longer but it is our shortest season, for sure.

It's supposed to snow tomorrow. It's raining right now and it's getting colder so... do the math? :o)

Yes, it's that atime of year. I'm watching the colors change and am personally very glad for it. I love the moss in your photo - it is crisp and you can see the detail. Almost able to feel it. Well done!
