Autumn Delight

Highbush cranberries are definitely an Autumn delight. They make my favorite wild jam even though they smell a bit like ripe athletic socks while they are cooking and they contain seeds that sometimes present a challenge during the removal process.

These bounteous berries are also favorite fare for ruffed grouse and smaller birds on their fall feeding rounds.

This cluster was found along the Lake Superior Trail near Duluth, Minnesota and enhanced with just a bit of Redfield Fractalius to bring out the jubilant spirit of the berries.

This is beautiful. I really like the lighting and the way the berries and leaf are highlighted around the edges. It reallly makes them pop out. Very artistic.
Thanks too for telling the interesting story aout these cranberries. Not so sure that I would enjoy the cooking scent :).
Bill Morgenstern replied

And thank you Jane for such a wonderful comment on this image and my commentary about these berries. In the end, the jam makes the cooking smell well worth the effort. It is the BEST . . . :D
