from the olive harvest

I really should have gone to sleep by now - but I can sleep a bit in the morning before market time. This photo is from the olive harvest a few months ago. These trees are in front of my host family's house. It was a good afternoon of hitting trees with sticks and putting lots of olives in the wheelbarrow. Olive oil is a really important part of meals and it's nice to know that ours is very local. I obviously had fun messing with the colors for effect. laila saida. goodnight.

I love this picture. It reminds me of a "still life" portrait. You can almost hear the leaves falling and rustling in the ground.
