Macro

Henryk, try to zoom closer to your fruits (and to flowers too). On this picture you don't show the main point: We cannot recognise surely what kind of fruit really is on the photo and if I see this in a forest I won't shout loudly: "wow, I saw this fruit on Summitpost posted by Henryk !" :-)
Have a good work and nice day !
Respect,
Jules

I like...

this picture because it shows what the leaves look like. It's hard to identify the shrub correctly without knowing what the leaves look like. A lot of berries look innocent and similar to red currants.

Re: I like...

Yes you are right but I think to identify this shrub enough less leaves. So if Henryk focused to only one or two berries and some leaves it would be much more informative. I mean in the same or bigger size.
Typical case of "Less is more". :-)

Thank you for your comment. I agree that leaves are an important factor in identyfying plants. Henryk
