Family Affair

PLEASE view LARGER. This was take in an area called St. Jacobs. St.

Jacobs has a quant villiage, and the people are fantastic. A lot of farm

land around the villiage. The villige is approx. 1.15hrs drive west of

Toronto. Comments are appreciated. Thanks!

Another beautiful image with wonderful treatment. Best regards.

Thanks so much, Sumon...glad you like it.

Every detail in this composition is remarkable my dear friend, the lady, the dog, the cutter... just perfect, congrats my dear friend...

Interesting composition but most of all this branches look amazing,like an octopus tentacles,best regards Radu.

Thank you, my dear friends.

Terrific piece of art, a very original composition with lots of viewer interest and wonderful post processing.

This is a fine piece of art Lawrence. Great composition and p/p once again.

A real keeper. Best Regards Glenn

I agree with Radu on the branches. I was fascinated by them, like a tree map growing around the house. The family,including the dog, working togerher convey a warm feeling.

Lawrence...Beautiful work here...despite the twisting and snaking of the glorious trees...you don't lose site of this family working together...7/7..Marjorie

Nice work, Lawrence. Take care.

Very nicely done Lawrence! Cheers!

Oh WOW Lawrence, this is really fantastic, like a slice of the past, and yet it's current, oh I love it...the title is perfect, it just makes me smile...when we were kids my mother used to cart us off to pick apples, and cherries, it was always a full day out in the sun, and we'd eat as much as we collected...we'd leave with our baskets full and our faces purple...lol...this takes me back to that...wonderful work! :)

Great theme, a family working together in the orchard, all brought together in your own unmistakable style...Regards and take care

Gotta love the "green technology" harmony of doing it the old fashioned way. Even the cut offs are being collected by hand.

What's more to say other than its another one of your superb photos!! Really outstanding!!

Simply marvelous! It is a wonderful combination of lighting and vibrant color. **Best regards, Linh Dinh

Lawrence, you've done it again. Taken a simple moment and crafted it into a wonderful work of art. Well done my friend. Have a great weekend.

Lawrence,

Wonderful depiction. I have been visiting the apple orchard weekly waiting for the blooms now I know where all the trimmings came from :) Perfect post work as always! Take care, Leslie

Really awesome work! Kind regards.

Absolutely beautiful Lawrence, it has so much going on. I guess I might suggest the obvious alternate title of "Family Tree(s)"...

great comp Lawrence.....and effects....I love St. Jacobs...only been there once..as soon as 4pm hit that beautiful sunny day...we learned the power was out.....EVERYWHERE..... don't think too many people will forget where they were the day the 'lights went out' and for many it lasted @ 3 days or more.....we were just in time to hit the Toronto Rush Hour home.....hubby was driving my standard Tiberon.....certainly did not enjoy the 'clutch' that day!!!!!!! great shot!
