persimmon picking











We went persimmon picking with my grandma this morning. Even with school hanging over my shoulder, my mom urged me to go and take pictures.  I'm so glad I did.  She taught me that the best persimmons are found nestled in the grass.  And I got some of the most valuable photographs I've ever taken.

  1. I absolutely adore these photos! So so much. How special and what treasures they are and will be forever. I've been meaning to take some pictures of my grandma. I know I need to.

  2. I haven't had a persimmon in forever! I still remember when we went to the store and my mom decided to try it out along with pomegranates. I love it:)

  7. I love those photographs! They are so beautiful. Persimmons aren't one of my favorite fruits, but I have tried them before! I didn't know people went "persimmon picking" though! That's so neat!
