The swirling background does a good job at helping draw some attention away from the berries, so that not only do we see the snowberries, but the background itself which also seems to be a work of art. The rich textures of the berries look great, and make me appreciate how intricate the small details of subject matter can be. Even the background has some good details, with the tiny ridges inside the swirling.

I am fascinated by this branch from the Bush in your yard, I think that I have the very same Bush in my yard and have been trying to identify it, it has the same tiny white buds or berries and then it will bloom tiny pink and white flowers, mine was blooming right up until it snowed. You have photographed this so very well, spot on focus, this image is clear, exposure is well managed, the colors and tones appear natural, well placed in the frame, it's a beautiful background in the blue tones with bits of green and that white swirl behind the berries. Well composed and presented!

Your photo is excellently focused and treated with mixed media. The Snowberries look special on the soft background. The pale gray is perfect to emphasize the berries. The branch shows sharpness and intriguing refinement of detail. The colors are realistic. The bow of the branch into the photo is eye pleasing. The mixed media is excellent composed and framed.
I appreciate your interesting comments very much.

A very good entry into the competition posted here for us to enjoy! Your fine, full and central composition grants us an enjoyable look at berries I have never heard of before. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!

They're toxic to our species,aren't they?
( I might be thinking of something else though. Botany isn't my 'strong suit'! : ) )
That's a fine looking picture of this cluster of them,my friend!
It has a nice Classy look to it that I'm enjoying a lot!
