Description
Today I was in my "Jelly Jar Studio" with this vine, a large cluster of red berries attached. While walking in the woods one beautiful summer day I spotted this slender green vine with bright red berries hanging from a tree. I knew immediately that I would have to take a specimen home to photograph. Once in the studio I started using different temperatures of light to illuminate my subject at hand. After what seemed hours I looked at all of the resulting images I picked this one to present because it has a certain minimalist quality about it. My imagination started to click searching for a title. I began to imagine an immigrant trying desperately to become part of a wonderfully inclusive society but there was a large crowd intent on blocking the way, denying he or she admission..A metaphor of the single berry juxtaposed by space and height to the larger cluster. Something current to ponder I think. Enjoy......... Taken in Hudson, Florida.

The image, the caption, and most of all the metaphor are perfect in my opinion. People should be berry inclusive, not divisive. Such a creature capture!

Love this one, Stuart. It is strangely emotive. My first thought was that the "immigrant" berry was leaving. Truth is, both emotions are there, the leaving and arriving. And fear of falling, without the help of others. Well envisioned, and technically perfect. Well done.
