It was a lovely brisk morning at Chattooga Belle farm.\u00a0 The peach blossoms here were almost peak, but the ones back in Georgia are pretty much fading and turning into green leaves.\u00a0 So cool to see the flowering Asian pears too.\u00a0 Will have to try all these fruits, including the blueberries and crispy apples during U-Pick season.<\/p>\n

Gear used: my ancient Nikon D600 and a 70-200mm only at f\/2.8 because the aperture lever is broken on this camera, the classic Fuji X100 that has dust spots (how?) on the sensor, a remote D5300 and a J1–totally random kit that I felt like using today.\u00a0 Oh and also a film camera that I remembered to bring.<\/p>\n

Also, for some of these photos, the AI descriptor prompt would go something like: “blooming peach trees in a grove on a green pasture with the blue ridge mountains in the background with one looking like a mini mount Fuji all at f\/2.8 with nice smooth bokeh and toned with a pastel filmic aesthetic”\u00a0 Or you could just hop in the car with a camera and see what’s out there for yourself. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
