Capturing September: attempt # P91 - 5 - # 08/223

What are you doing? Why are you lying on the wet ground, in an old raincoat, fiddling with that camera again? Come in at once! Do something useful!

The garden apple crop this year is abundant but the apples are small in spite of the high rainfall. I suppose excessive cloud and lack of sun are to blame. But the squirrels and birds are getting the benefit from them.

My challenge here is to catch the juiciness, the whiteness and the squirrel's teeth marks. It's definitely not the world's finest September Apple Picture, but I had great fun doing it, and avoided having to do several "useful" things.

Summer signs off - final - # 261

Positively the finest and the last apple...Rebecca ate it for breakfast! Note the wasp reconnaissance mission on the left. (OK, I confess, this shot is from last year when I had a bumper crop. This year the tree rested and we had almost nothing. So in a way, I suppose, this was "the last apple" - 'til next year).
