Such beautiful photos. I love the way plants look with water droplets on them. And that second photo - the water looks like glass.
The fruit looks a lot like a kiwi. I wonder what it tastes like!
Lovely photos. Would never know to eat something like that little green berry.
I love the second photo! So serene! And the branches of the trees are such wonderful shapes.
Thanks for sharing!
I love hearing the enthnobotanical details of plants. I like trying whatever is edible and medicinal here in the Western part of North America. Beautiful Photo of your creek too.
Nice shots. I really like that last one! :-)
Great shot. I never would've guessed it was a trail if you hadn't said so though. Looks like you got quite a bit of rain!
I have never heard of that little berry...the photo of the bike path is beautiful even though flooded..
Really beautiful photos!
The photo from the bike path is an inviting scene - lovely place to pause and enjoy.
great photos, when you click on them the detail is amazing.

Even flooded it looks inviting! Lovely photo of the flower/fruit, too, and I enjoyed all the info to go with it.
The pictures are nice. Love the bike path picture.
Stunning, I love everything about this image. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!
