Caught!


Red brightness, originally uploaded by jiihaa.

These are the red berries of bitter nightshade (Solanum dulcamara), also known as poisonberry, which tells that they are not to be eaten. I have many times tried to photograph these with my Ixus 400, but always failed. (Due to the reflection of light from the berries burning out the colors completely.) This time I more or less succeeded, I feel, even though the dynamic range of the photo could be better.
