I took my macro lens along the Riverwalk Trail. I was hoping for a bit of autumn colour, but we didn't find much unless you count, these two poor leaves that were on the railing of one of the footbridges.
Shadows elsewhere on another railing.
There were bushes of blue berries, but I don't think they were blueberries if you know what I mean. They don't grow like that around here. Let me know if I am wrong.
Gardens abut the trail in a few spots. I liked these yellow seed pods overhanging the fence.
Light catching a few leaves out of the shadowy background. I think this final photo is my fave of the walk, but the competition wasn't that stiff yesterday. :-)
This is Sue's photo of me taking the first photo in the post of the two leaves on the railing.
What! you didn't taste the blueberry? Sure looks like one to me. But I am not sure I'd have wanted any other taste in my mouth, if it weren't one. I also like the simple beauty of the last three leaves
ReplyDeleteThe blue berries look like grapes to me.
ReplyDeleteI like the simplicity of all these photos. They are lovely. They do look like grapes to me, as well.
ReplyDeleteWow, that last shot! Could they have been huckleberries?
ReplyDeleteI like the last photograph. That bright splash of red is quite arresting.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a peaceful walk despite the limited autumn colors! Love how you captured the subtle beauty of nature along the way, especially those yellow seed pods and the light on the leaves. I just published a new blog post. Check it out here: https://www.melodyjacob.com/2024/09/watcher-2022-thriller-movie-review.html. Would love to hear your thoughts! Feel free to share it if you find it useful.
ReplyDeleteI love you beautiful photographs AC. They say a lot about your noticing and appreciation. Those look like grapes to me! I hope you have a pleasant pain-free day my friend. Aloha!
ReplyDeleteThose look very like wild grapes, AC. Iwould have to see the leaves to be sure.
ReplyDeleteA nice set of photos today, nice early Fall feel to them. Makes me smile to see you out with your camera again.
I love it when life is dappled.
ReplyDeleteWild grapes is the best guess. There are few red trees today along the concession roads, but very few. I figure it will peak in two weeks or so if we get the right weather.
ReplyDeleteYou do have fun. Like the shadow photo.
The close up studies of these leaves are memorable
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy macro photography. Yours are quite beautiful!

The berries look similar to those I have seen on pokeweed. You could take a photo with your iPhone and use the plant ID feature, which I've done quite often.
ReplyDeleteLovely, especially the first one.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a grape bunch to me. Fall is coming.
ReplyDeleteI love that I could see Sue's shadow (or at least her hat) as she photographed her beloved.
ReplyDeleteThat last shot draws the viewer in…gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMacro is my favorite way to photograph as I live in such a large forest.
ReplyDeleteYour photos just took my breath away. Thank you for your inspiring work.
You take the most incredible macro photos!
