Nice photograph of these beautiful berries covered in frost. They are a lovely color; focus and clarity are very good. The angle of the shot adds interest. Very nice.

Oh your lucky..you get your berries chilled for free! Lol..I'm just teasing. This is a cool capture. No pun. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot of these colorful berries with frost is great. The capture of the light is great. The presentation is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall.

A beautiful picture of these American Beauty Berry with a coating of the first Hawfrost of this winter the light glowing through the leaves from behind & the light falling on the berries catches the sparkle of the Hawfrost. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

I am not so sure agree with you about welcoming the frost, because the summer in Norway has been rainy and cold. I do however agree that these pink berries look truly beautiful with the frost. Almost looks like they are covered in sugar.

I like a lot the way the light is falling on the yellow leaves, and how well the berries are standing out from the background. The photo is very sharp showing clear and well defined details, and the exposure is perfect.

The cropping is very good, and I like the diagonal placement of the berries within the frame. Indeed a lovely and well taken photo Soulfeeder, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Comment from Phil Holloway


Lovely tones and textures captured and the framing of vibrant berries against the monotone green works really well. The touch of frost adds the extra dimension making this an excellent image. Really well seen and captured

    Indeed, wish I can accommodate that one, too. I just want to max my focus on this particular shot. But you are right! Thank you so much, Brian.

Oh soulfeeder, this is definitely food for one's soul and heart - Bravo.

The technical parameters are spot on perfect but the artistic appeal of this piece are head and shoulders above that.

The frost crystals are in such fine focus and appear so delicate and fragile. So delicate, so fragile they make one think that just breathing near them and they would instantly melt.

Thank you for keeping the shot as you saw it. This is beautiful work... Bob

Last week my friend and I made a big batch of American Beauty Berry jelly. It is so good. I like your shot and the morning light adds to the feeling of getting out early for a crisp beautiful walk. Well presented and good luck :)

    Your very welcome. Don't know about raw berries but they do make wonderful jelly.
