Lens: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 II
Location: West Mountain/Santaquin, Utah
Date: Feb 2, 2008

Date Uploaded: Feb 2, 2008

 Earliest memory is of me and my grandpa going to a local apple (or it was cherry) orchard and him walking with me through it.
I remember him telling me about the way they picked the cherrys, and then he would run a little with me in his arms, i felt like i was on top of the world. All black until i was about 6 or so.

I dont have people in this because I wanted it to be from the perspective of myself in his arms.

nice leading line and love the b&w, I feel a bit of cropping the sky could help a bit and I think there is a bit too much negative space

This is a nice black and white, but I would lose most of the sky.

Very pretty scene. Border is a little heavy for the delicacy of the branches.
