Berries Jubilee
by Helen Betts

Ankara, Turkey

OK, this time I'll leave my entries in, regardless of whether I decide I don't like them later or not :-). Taken outside my apartment building. As usual, I seemed to attract a lot of attention (I guess nobody in Turkey takes pictures of such silly things :-)), with both our building security guard and the resident policeman coming up to see what I was doing.

Lovely image! Beautiful colors and effective use of DOF to isolate the subject.

This is quite nice, Helen. I love the bright orange colors if of the berries and the OOF mirroring of them in the background. These look identical to what we call dogberries here. I think here the tree is a species of Mountain Ash...

Nice image - I love the bright colors, the diagonal composition and the DOF! There sure are a lot of berries on that vine.
