Was watching the light again as the sun prepared to set. Here is a different angle of the orchard. Strange how the trees in the orchard appeared small the other day. Moving in closer, the trees take on a different perspective. The apple trees are pruned to keep them close to the ground, then short ladders can be used at harvest time.

very good photograph..and yes apple trees here are kept short (about 10-12 ft high)so pickers can move throught the orchard quicker by carrying a one piece ladder for picking.

I love this picture. It reminds me of an apple orchard in central Maine I used to visit. DB
