Nicely framed and captured.
Except - the red highlights are blown, clipped, overexposed. Whether in
camera exposure or processing, the red channel is clipped over much of
the red areas, leading to false colors. Possibly, you may need more than
-2/3 EV on the E-510 with red subjects in direct sunlight.
Here are some berries, of what kind I don't know, that I shot today. On
the 5D, -2/3 EV held both the berries out of the light and all but a few
pixels in the highlight on the sunny berry.
