Time to Rest.


One place that I just love to visit is the studio of Gayle Fulwyler Smith, a watercolor artist in Dixon. Her home is surrounded by a large apple orchard and you have to walk on a road in the orchard to reach her home. This old trailer that was probably used at harvest time. Wish I could have caught a shot of it when it was full of apples.

    Looks like a peaceful and wonderful place, I love those trees with Autumn colours and your picture is really beautiful!Very well captured!
    No doubt those artists have great inspiration in this awesome scenery!

    I always thought it would be neat to have an apple orchard. Of course I wouldn't know what to do with all the apples, but they sure look neat! :)

    This looks like it was a pretty walk amongst the trees. I can almost smell the fresh air.

    It still looks great when it's empty, because the wood looks old.

    I wish I could live there - then I can press my own apple juice every morning! :)

    This is a great photo, well-composed. I think that it would look like a slice of history in black and white. That old wagon has probably carried many apples in its day!
