I did not know this is what they are called. Good use of the light and shadows. It looks like your focus was right on with a good background. Thanks for teaching me something!

Thankyou, these are sometimes overlooked as people concentrate on the beautiful blooms rather than what happens after they have gone :)

Thanks, not so wierd this time round, can see them on any old rose bush after the bloom. Will keep trying to find some wild ones for you though :) Mary

Comment from terry1938
Very intresting (and different) subject Mary Elizabeth. You have presented what a lot of people would consider a fairly ordinary subject in a very dramatic manner. I also like the way, the rose hip is mostly shaded, but there is enough colour to maintain the viewers interest. Good focus and exposure, excellent DOF. You have a good eye. Thanks for sharing.
