The Beginning of Fruit Season

I've been seeing these trees along the highway for the last week or so, and finally managed to get up close to one to take a picture. The bright juicy redness of these delicious-looking cherries make me hungry just to look at them. It's fruit season - probably one of the best parts about summer. And here in the Walla Walla Valley, we know a lot about fresh fruit. U-Pick orchards are very popular in this area, and I hope to do some blueberry picking in a few months.

I'll have them all. I just bought some today, along with apricots from the south of France. Aren't summer fruit just heavenly? ;-)

That is a truly beautiful photo. I love the focus on the bunch in front and the remainder hovering in the background. Nice perception.
