Default pumpkins and gourds for your table

A sampling of the harvest at Boyd's Orchard not too far from our home...It was a beautiful day and I had a day off work, so off to the pumpkin patch we went......This place is primarily an apple orchard but do the pumpkins too seasonally. We'll explore the place in more detail in upcoming posts

Great shots Patrick. Looks like you could pic the fruits straight out of the picture. PAUL

Beautiful capture of true colors, Patrick! I like the first ones...the lines in the gourds broken by the pumpkin! Well done, sir.

Patrick, these are just super. I'm very drawn to the last because of the repeating patterns in the stems and the seams in the pumpkins. All pics, though, are so rich in color. Very nice!

They might be a tad soft by then though........I wish I was well heeled enough to do that....would love to try my my hand at some Arizona photography and I need a good guide with lots of good pointers.....You would fit the bill quite nicely

Great colours and shapes, they look just right to eat. All are great shots and well captured.
