Life on a branch

On my daily search for something new in my garden, I looked up and saw this clump of berries. Interesting how the young green, ripe red, and wrinkled black berries were all together in this one branch. It made me think of the phases of life.

Great colors and DOF, Leia. I am trying to figure out what the berries are. Some kind of ornamental?

[Rick Schies]

So pretty and colorful

[Mary Briggs]

The colors are beautiful. You've got the innocence of youth, the experience of middle-age and the decline of end of life all in one shot.

[Mary Briggs]

I guess that makes it a family tree...

[Leia Smith]

@maryb that's a good name for the tree! Thanks!

[Leia Smith]

@jankoos this is from the Holly tree in my neighbors' backyard that spreads out to ours.

@mzzhope @friend2303 @jodimuli @snowflakes86 @digitalrn thanks for your comments. Most of the red holly berries fall to the ground which is not good for our dog to eat. But she knows to stay away from them.

I like the red-green contrast
