Fine back-lit shot, nice cropping too. Chestnut soup? That is new to me. Worth trying sometime.

Bonjour Karin,
C'est étonnant la façon dont les châtaignes captent la lumière.
C'est du plus bel effet avec cet arrière plan sombre
Amicalement

Hi Karin
Original photo of those top branches chestnuts, it's fun to see all the light captured by the hairy envelope of the fruit. That's a nice composition. Tell me, what are those droplets we see on top? Was it raining?
Thanks for sharing

Hello Karin,
The strong backlight adds a fine effect and the result is close to abstract...
Lovely colours and fine details, effective framing!

Hello Karin

Beautiful the look of the chestnuts,
I can imagine all was gouty the soup of these chestnuts.
I like BG, he has a beautiful one visual!

I love the brightly lit edges of the Chestnuts - they look really good.
Super composition and colours, as well as the lighting

Hi karin,
I saw your theme in your intro, so I had to visit it. I have a similar one on TN and this is one of the things I really love about nature photography.
I really like the way you used the light to highlight the edges of the chestnuts. The contrast between the purpleish BG and the tree is most wonderful. The panorama like crop enhances the mood of the photo even more.
TFS,
Niek
