It has been so cold and windy for the last month I have not been able to get out to do any kite flying and photography so I was digging through some images from an October photo shoot and thought I would post this view of the Cranberry harvest in central Wisconsin. Here the berries have been removed from the plant and are floating in the pond waiting to be corralled and loaded.

Cranberries actually grow in a dry sandy bed. When they are ready for harvest the bed is flooded and then a machine is driven through the bed that gently knocks the berries from the plants and they float to the surface.

Stumbled into a shot from last years vacation to a far away destination.

Once the cranberries are separated from the plant and are floating they are corralled.
