Blackberries, Hawthorn, Rose Hips and Bittersweet

What you see

Several branches cross on the diagonal. At the top hangs a cluster of long red bittersweet berries. In the center, the bramble shows ripe black blackberries beside red ones not yet ready. On the left are the round red berries of the hawthorn, and below, oval rose hips with dark tips. Large bramble leaves fill the lower right corner.

The reds range from the bright crimson of the berries to the duller red of the unripe blackberries, and every tiny bead of the black ones is visible. The bramble leaves turn from green to ochre and reddish brown. Don’t miss the small thorns along the stems and the white highlight on each berry that makes it look wet.
