Walnut Harvest

Jill and I have just returned from our holls in South West France, one evening we headed out for a drive and noticed some villagers working over their Walnut Harvest.

Re: Walnut Harvest

Thanks again. The black and white does suit the photo much more so than the colour, the pink Marigolds didn't do a lot for the image.

That's a cracking shot Andy - could be book cover. Well spotted.

Saw this on my flickr feed. Perfect black and white processing, really makes the details pop.

Re: Walnut Harvest

Andy could I just ask the method for taking this photo ? I presume you approached the lady and asked if it was OK to take a photo? or was it a grab it opportunity - if the later how did you stop her from just standing there and smiling towards you, so spoiling the lifestyle type photo..

I tried doing something similar with some orange pickers recently but the guys once I pointed towards the camera and smiled ( I don't speak Spanish) stood there and posed for me .. not really the shot I wanted and didn't keep
