The Black Heart of Winter

I knew it was yours from the thumbnail Andrew, it looks just like a black heart too, lovely colours from the light coming underneath the leaf and on the ivy. Cheers Trixie

Thanks everyone.

I took the shot whilst walking around my brother-in-law's garden near Malvern, using my K10 with the 50-200 Schneider-Kreuznach fitted.

I'm really lucky to have that combination to play around with.

Best wishes,

Andrew

So vivid it could have been taken with a K-5!
