Picking Apples

It's apple picking season, and the whole clan got in on the action this past weekend.  As one would imagine, it's not easy to try and snap off a few photographs while holding a bag full of apples and watching a couple of young junior partners who are running through the trees and petting various farm animals.  Fortunately, the archives are chock full of photographs for just such an occasion.  This particular apple had caught my eye due to the green streak that was running down it.  I positioned it on a tree stump, facing towards the sun, and poured a little bit of water over it for a little bit of shine.  The photograph was taken at f/9, 1/80sec, ISO 400 at 57mm.  The kids had fun, we came home with lots of apples, which My Lovely Assistant had already begun to transform in to various tasty treats and a good time was had by all.
