‘Pick Up Here’
Notes
I took “Pick Up Here” while visiting The Pumpkin Patch on Sauvie Island in Portland, OR in November 2024. This was just 2 weeks after our family moved from Brooklyn, NY to Portland. We were in the middle of a stressful move and we decided we had to take a break and do one of my favorite things, during my favorite time of year - visit a pumpkin patch 1 in the Fall!
My favorite part of the photo is the expression of the cook. He is the centerpiece of the photo. If he wasn’t there, this would be a much more boring photo. He has piercing eyes and I like how his vintage Nike hat adds to his style. I also like the contrast between the hard lines of the door and siding, compared to the comparatively messy collection of pumpkins and ketchup and mustard dispensers.
Gear
This photo was taken with a Ricoh GR.
Footnotes
I became enchanted with pumpkin patches during a visit to Tim’s Pumpkin Patch in Marietta NY. If you are ever in the Marietta area in the Fall I can highly recommend it!↩︎
