The Northycote Farm turkey pair on a frosty and sunny morning earlier this month. The sun was low in the sky and behind them, lighting their wattles from behind and making them glow bright red.

Pretty much every time I tried to capture that effect, the birds would move their heads slightly so their wattles were shadowed.

Rose still in flower in the garden at Lavington’s Hole, Underhill, Bridgnorth, recently. Shot from behind the flower, with the sunlight passing through the petals, and also catching the supporting threads of the spiders’ webs on the bush.
