The Orchard (photo)

I’m not sure it’s possible to capture the idyllic feel of this beautiful spot. I did my best.

I tweak my route to work from time-to-time. I’m looking to shave seconds. I’m looking to stave off boredom. That’s how I ended up on Blue Hills Road in Wallingford.

Most of this part of Wallingford is residential, but Blue Hills Road cuts through a sizable apple orchard.

Yesterday was beautiful enough for me to stop the car, get out (angering a dog leashed to a nearby home) and start shooting toward the east. I’m not sure it’s possible to capture the idyllic feel of this beautiful spot. I did my best.
