Blueberries on The Mountain

I found these blueberries on May 20, 2006 at "The Mountain" near Highlands, NC. They were growing in the clearing beside Meditation Rock. These blueberries, far from being ripe, were growing near some white oak trees that had caught my attention due to the small size of their leaves (see below). During the previous night, it had been rather wet and stormy, so I got out early to capture as many rain-covered images as I could. While standing in the clearing, the rain returned for a while, but I stayed and kept shooting. This image is one reward of that trip.
