Crash the party where trees shake off their jewelry In 2022 we drove to the Hope Valley in California to see the fall colors in the Sierra Nevada mountains. On the way we passed by a walnut tree farm near Lockeford, where we noticed a lot of dust in the trees. We stopped, it was a good photo opportunity! It turned out that the walnuts just were getting harvested. One machine drove along the nicely arranged trees to shake them one by one so that the nuts fall to the ground, another machine arranged the fallen nuts and debris in the middle between tree rows, and a third machine scooped it up. All that created a lot of dust, to the delight of us three photographers. -- ƒ/5.6, 16 mm, 1/160, 1/640 sec, ISO 200, Sony A6000, SEL-1650, HDR, CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, © 2022 Peter Thoeny, @Quality HDR Photography
