Manic Monday prompt ~ Harvest

November (in orchard country, Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula), is cherry harvest time. After about a month of glorious blossom, the cherries are born and November to December (just in time for Christmas) you may visit the Red Hill orchards to get some fresh cherries or even choose to pick your own!

It's is great to see the cherry blossoms. Just about all the leaves are gone here. Winter is approaching. Your cherry blossoms give me hope as i wait for spring.

What a beautiful sight for this time of year since I am on the other side of the seasons. One of the best views up here is "The Blossom Trail" in Central California where there are miles upon miles of fruit and nut trees in bloom.
I've never seen cherry blossoms and for that cherry trees before. I am always amazed by their looks on photos.
