The story behind the image

We are happy that a field for self-harvesting of strawberries is close to our village in Unterhaching, Germany. This image shows the result: freshly hand-picked strawberries. They glow in a deep satured red, and the color on the photo is very very similar to reality. Which is why I like this photo so much.

The only sad thing is, that the strawberries never last very long. They are so tasty and juicy that they are gone within a few days. Then again, there may still be some available on that same field. So, where is my bicycle? 🙂
