Red Berries
Red Berries | 5"x7" | oil on hardboard
Another result of my treks westward out of Maurice. I was walking out there on a particularly gorgeous late Sunday afternoon a couple weeks ago. The sun was illuminating everything with that warm golden color that is so wonderful. I noticed these berries growing in the ditch and decided I needed to run back to the house to grab my camera to capture these beauties.
I'm calling them red berries, only because I don't know their proper name. They were plump, red and looked good enough to eat (although I doubt they were). This week the plants are dark brown and the berries have shriveled up to nothing.
Beauty is fleeting.

I've got photos of similar berries! Rich, fall colors illuminated by late afternoon sun--nothing beats that!
