Appledrip House by dulciknit

Appledrip House

This is the back of our house as seen reflected in a raindrop on an apple on one of our two apple trees. I've inverted the shot so you don't have to stand on your head to see the house the right way up. :-)
Ever since I went out after a rain shower a month or more ago and took a photo of an appledrip and found a fuzzy image of the house in it, I've been trying to get a sharp one. Today, a day of sunshine and scattered showers, I finally succeeded.
Incidentally, we don't eat the apples; the trees are at the very least 30 years old and the apples are awful. The birds like them in the winter, though. #
That is wonderful.... I love this. Fav.

Cool shot. Love the sharpness. Great.
By the way. Just do an apple tree cut-back in November and next year you will have doubled the yield and got sweet and edible apples again.
Have fun.

Here is an article on cutting back apple trees. Your plight is quite normal. Don't be frightened - be bold and really harshly cut it back. You will be really rewarded for your trouble. http://www.weekendgardener.net/how-to/prune-apple-trees.htm

Nice work.

Thanks I did have a search! This is great! I. Didn't realise the age of an apple tree affects the taste - that'll be why one of ours is hopeless!
