Apple orchards with trees having a relatively high trunk aren't in use anymore in my country because for picking the apples, orchard ladders were required. For the owners of these orchards such fruit trees weren't cost-effective anymore, so they were changed by, more easy to handle, fruit trees with lower trunks. This picture of such an old (small) orchard is taken on April 7th, 2019 in the vicinity of/adjacent to the little town of Veere, Zeeland, The Netherlands (peeking through the trees on the left, one can see some houses of Veere). This orchard has only stayed intact because of nostalgic reasons.

Edit: Thanks for your below comment, SAW, making me aware, that my image would be a suitable music video submission for the SNATM-theme (🎥). My knowledge about films/movies is too small to recognize this instantly.

Lovely Spring imagery Mr. C. I'm glad they have kept it in good shape even if it's just for nostalgic reasons.

Nothing more beautiful then a chorus line of Apple Blossoms performing in the spring, SEA.
Glad they have kept the orchard alive.
Beautiful photo.

A lovely sight to see when the flowering trees in an orchard are in full blossom...I don't know if you realize it or not but your title is also the title of an old SONG , performed by various singers but I think the original version was by the Andrews Sisters...this would be a great music video submission for Saturday Night at the Movies and you're welcome to add your title to that discussion board at any time, SEA:)

They have shifted to the lower trees around here as well Mr. C. but it's wonderful to see the old trees in bloom - so lovely.
