  Was walking by the shed and saw this growing through the ladder that is hanging from the 4×4 posts supporting the overhang roof.
  
  I should probably crop these as square photos, hmmm

  Thats cool RG, I’ld be playing around with this a lot more shooting different perspectives / angles.

    I almost did but in testing out a new lens, I moved on to other close ups.

  Great find, RG. I like the different DOF in each shot, and nature versus manmade.

    If it wasn’t for the dog poking around that side of the shed, I might have missed it.
    
    Thank you!

  Very nice shots, mate. Looks like you’ve been taking a few leaves out of @tersha’s book with these ones. 😉

  Closed down the aperture for a deeper DoF.

    That second one was the angle I was hoping for , really emphasizes the juxtaposition, and those are big words for me.

    Love these versions RG. I can imagine the bush cascading down or vining up the ladder and filling the entire rail with fruits 🙂

    LOL, that angle is a better perspective, though the bush looks so much smaller in mass than the over head shot.
    
    @dahliaambrose
    
    I’m gonna stick with weekly shots, we’ll see what it does.

    Hooah, I like the DoF isolation.

  I do hope it reaches the fruit baring stage, it’s in the sun for only about 4 hours in the morning. The shed shads it around 10am+

    This is the strongest one imho – those leading lines and the separatuion form the background works very nicely.
