Super sky :)
Btw what is Apple & Pumpkin picking? Have heard this a lot from the US settled buddies. You just go n pick these from some farm?

@Usha;
Thank you!

@Dhanya;
Thank You
Yes, It is one of those fun trips, especially for children, to connect back with nature (ppl here normally gets so disconnected some times)

You have these huge (hundreds of hectors) farms & they allow you to hand pick fruits (based on season, it would be apples, pumpkins, strawberries, peaches et all..). We can spend enough time in the farm picking what we want right from the tree/plant - Finally pay for your pick on a standard rate per pound when going out... ;)

It is just fun... economics doesn't work out well many times...

@Bindhu;
Thank you!
Good question... Well, I think it is blue berry ;) Our focus was Pumpkins on the other side of the fence & Apples on this side of the fence - Never occured to me to see what is ON the fence... LOL

RAW processing?

@Rohin;

Thank You!
Yes, processing the RAW files now since I found a renewed interest in doing that - rather than the umpteen clicks for a JPEG ;)

Howz life?

Amazing pic. Great combination of colors. The tree with the berries looks like some kind of abstract art painting :-)- inverted tree with berries growing downwards :-D...

Thank you Swami (Subodh ??)!
Howz life? Long time no see...
