2. The first shot is just gorgeous
and in the last one, that enterprising little devil making his way toward the berries also happens to really make the shot complete. Did you pose him for that or is this just a fortunate candid?

4. Are you kidding? He showed up on his own, and he is really what made me
post the pictures more for a laugh than anything else.
It takes very little to make preacher's kids happy.

3. I get the rasberries
And the roach. I think it's about time to wash them in the colander again, don't you think? It makes a good picture, but I doubt that Southern Living would publish it, LOL. Funny.

But what is that first picture? it has the feel of grapes but they aren't grapes with the opening on the end. I don't think I am familiar with that.

Based on what I pay for rasberries, you have a gold mine in your back yard.

5. The promise is in the blueberries. I have 3 bushes and one I planted 2 years ago
is going to feed me and the neighbors, it is simply weighed down and I have to stake it in multiple places.
And that's not a roach, god forbid. Just a little earworm kind of thing, king of the garden.

6. oh, it's blueberries!!
Thanks. Awesome. I love them all but blackberries are my favorites. Thanks for telling me it is not a roach. I can see that now, but they do look a little alike.

7. Yummy looking fruit
I especially like the last picture. The little raspberry thief adds a funny twist that really makes that shot.

9. that first picture is spectacular
the color, the composition, everything. It helps that the immature plant is perfect and unsullied.
