Snow, berries and grating
My favorite part of this photo is the focussing effect of the droplet.

Who and why
I started this blog in Jan 2007 as a member of the City Daily Photo family representing the village of Villigen. I'm a transplant to Switzerland and keeping the blog was a way for me to keep a record of new things I learnt while sharing with others. I was on a long LONG break, and now I post only sporadically although I still have hopes of posting more regularly. Thanks for stopping by and drop me a line if you have questions or comments.

Camera information
My current camera is an Olympus OM-D E-M10 (2014). Main lens: Panasonic 20mm f/1.7. Zoom/macro: Olympus M.Zuiko 60mm f/2.8. Until mid-2014 I had an Olympus PEN-EP2 (2010). Up until June 2010 I used a Panasonic Lumix FZ7 (2006). Occasionally there may appear photos taken with either a Nikon Coolpix 950 that I've had since 2000 or a used Nikon Coolpix 990 I acquired in 2009.

The droplet is beautiful and the red really pops. Cheers!
Oh, yeah! Ha! How good is that! I guess that could be explained by my son with physics ... let's not listen to him. It is just totally beautiful, Z.
A lovely macro shop! Love the contrast between the berries and the snow.
Yesterday I received the KREATIV BLOGGER award from Diederick at Aronaeveryday and consequenly have the right to nominate 6 further blogs for this award. It is with pleasure that I nominate you for a Kreativ Blogger Award. My 6 nominations are linked on my blog and there is a certificate that is yours should you wish to participate in this award. Your blog gives me pleasure and ideas and I appreciate and value your efforts.
Hi Z
Nice plant !!
http://www.nccpg.com/gloucestershire/plantweek38e.html
Skimmia japonica subsp. reevesiana
The flowers are white and it's an green the whole year.
Comes from China or Taiwan (the garden center).

Thank you all for your comments!
Julie: But physics is fun and enhances the overall experience! Thank you so much for the award, but I'm going to be a party pooper and not forward it on... I hope you don't mind terribly! I would like to say that I treasure your visits and comments and I get a lot out of your Sydney haiku blog.
Wellingtonia: The leaves of the Skimmia japonica subsp. reevesiana look much bigger than the berries in comparison to the ones in my photo. I think the ones in my photo could be Cotoneaster Dammeri Coral Beauty or something similar.
Hi Z
Is this cotoneaster your plant ?
Be careful with it.
It is one of the dangerest plants for the "Feuerbrand".

Cotoneaster can be a host plant to that bacterial killer of appel-, pear- and other fruittrees.

Wellingtonia: No, we rent an apartment on the 2nd floor so we have no garden. If we ever do have a garden, we'll stay away from Cotoneaster!
That is an amazing shot. Well captured.
i agree and i like the reds too :)
