Hello Robert
It's very interesting the effect of the ice on these beautiful colorful red grapes nearly as if it were sugar. The details and the light enriches optimally the composition.

Like icing on a cake the frost makes these berries look good! Well captured showing these berries and their 'icing' and leaves with excellent technical qualities.
The note is interesting too.
Thanks and all the best to you and Jane, Bob.

Hi Bob,
I love the frosting on these grapes. They give this photo that bit of extra from the ordinary berry photos.
I did not know that these berries had a medicinal use. It is certainly good that this native knowledge is kept alive in our modern world.
TFS,

Hi Bob,
this motive is wonderful - but also remembering that winter will come soon.
I love the delicate crystals on the berries, beautiful.
Thanks and greetings

Hello Bob,
A beautiful capture of these bright red berries covered in frost. Lovely colours and great details. It looks very much like Cotoneaster that you often see here in gardens.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

Hi Bob!

Your text and your picture are in total harmony, and as I also can't fly away like J. Mitchell (I'm lying in hospital) I do it in my mind. The picture really is refreshing and the berries look like powdered with sugar...

Kind regards

Nice photo Bob, but could you please keep the white stuff out your way for a little while longer, 22degrees F. doesn't sound to pleasing at the moment.
To be honest with you, until I read your notes I had never heard of an Oregon Grape. I'll take your word for the yucky taste though.
I like the vivid red colors against the dark green leaves. The DOF is very good showing some great detail. TFS.

Hello Bob,
A subject for a fine Christmas-card! Very fine composition and beautiful effect of the frost on the red berries. I had to look up in the dictionary what "Yuck" means. Now I know :-)
Have a nice day.
Kind regards

Wouldn't know how they taste, but surely they look great through your lens Bob, the ratio of reds to greens is just right in your fine composition, and the white of the frost completes a trilogy on colour harmony nicely.
TFS and cheers,
Mehmet
