NH Family Photographer ~ Family Apple Picking Fun ~ the still life version

Have you told you how much I adore fall!  I really really do.  Fall is my favorite season.  I love the pumpkins, the hayrides, the bonfires, the cuddling, the foods, the sweaters, the candy, well..everything.  I also love apple picking!  I have been twice this year and loved it both times.



This orchard had these wonderful crates lining the rows of apples...love these. 


The apples were so very red.  I have never seen such red delicious apples.

When I got home I scrubbed and washed the apples.  I noticed something on one of the apples.  Do you see what I see? 


A little heart. 


And because who doesn't love collages: 

Have  a wonderful Thursday!

These are all fabulous photos! I would love to go apple picking (for the photos of course). What state do you live in? I wonder how long I would have to travel to find an orchard?

You've been singlehandedly responsible for my yearning for apples in the last week or so with your gorgeous capture of them. Particularly love your 2 last shots. Your processing of your already perfectly composed photos always makes me look forward to reading through your posts.

Beautiful photos! I've never gotten to pick apples yet, but we did go to a local apple stand and buy some there. We got a new kind called Sweet Tango. We were eating them like candy! Yum!

Chic Homeschool Mama said...

That is something I have always wanted to do. How FUN! I really love that vibrant shot of the apple all alone- beautiful

Probably the best autumn activity there is, filled with goodness, beauty and memories to last a lifetime. Wonderful photos, Tara, and that heart on the apple – magical! I loved seeing these photos as we probably won't make it apple picking this fall. Traveling again soon.

Have a lovely week. – g
