Artist's Description
I took this image in the Texas panhandle with a Nikon D300 and a Nikkor 105, 2.8 micro/macro/close up lens....It was handheld.
Fine Art America watermark will not appear on your image.
The Scarlet Firethorn, Pyracantha coccinea is an evergreen with stiff, thorny branches and an open spreading growth habit. The leaves are dark green in summer months, and will remain green in mild climates but will turn brownish in winter in harsher climates.
White flowers will appear in spring on last years growth. They are showy because of their numbers. The berrylike, round 1/4 fruits are orange-red, and ripen in September and persisting into winter.
Scarlet firethorn is often used as an informal hedge or a barrier plant. It adapts well to espalier on walls and fences. It prefers deep, moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil. Pyracantha do well where the soil is dry in summer.
Full sun produces the best fruiting, but plants will...
About Karen Slagle
I have recently gotten into bird photography and really love taking their pictures. I also have a passion for clouds and the Texas landscape when the storms come rolling in. Lightning is a favorite subject during storms. I love macro photography and all the hidden detail in these amazing closeups. My arsenal consists of all Nikon cameras, flash units and Nikkor lenses. I have won monthly contests at Better Photo and I have also been published in Cowboy Magazine and Cowboys and Indians Magazine. PLEASE DO NOT PIN IMAGES TO PINTEREST.....THANK YOU

Even though these flies are pests, they have a job. You have to admire their hardiness and their flashy colors. I love the tiny flowers too. Fabulous macro.
