Frosted Pair of Blackberry Leaves

[best appreciated at full size against black]

Behind our shop we have blackberry bushes and last August-September, Steve and I ate blackberries like bears every day to try to eat them all! We made at least 5 blackberry pies, and we made cobbler, pancakes, and muffins! YUMMY!! And now the plants are nearly dead in the winter, but they're just waiting for spring to wake them up again! Here are a pair of colorful leaves, nested one on top of another, touched by frost.
