Fallen red apples gather in the grass beneath the trees, the ripest fruit dropped early in the season, while the orchard rows recede into the autumn light. Orchards like this were a common sight across the American countryside, where apples were grown for fresh eating, cider, drying and winter storage. Pictures of windfalls such as this one often signaled the end of harvest, when growers gathered what was sound and let the damaged fruit lie where it fell.
