It looks as if it has a couple of cones. Any closeups?

I loaded this before I had a chance to check my identification. A ripe blue-black cone opened to show 3 closely bound seeds. Juniperus communis. I don't know which subspecies.

I look forward to a bottle of home made gin, as teh series (cones) are a key ingredient

Not many ripe 'berries' so you might have to wait a year or so.
