once the berries are all corraled, they are 'vacuumed' into a large tube where the water is discharged back into the bog and the berries fall into a tractor trailor truck and are taken to be sorted and processed. The man on the left is raking berries into the submerged mouth of the suction tube, and the man on the right is 'cinching' in the boom...

Looks like a lot of work, and once again you've treated us to this marvelous red and the blue of the water.

I went back and looked at all the photo's in Cranberry series. They're all good and the color of the berries versus the water is perfect. I finally figured out what I'm having for Thanksgiving. Cranberry Juice with a shot of Wild Turkey. Someone said turkey and cranberries are what Thanksgiving is all about. I'll probably be "very" thankful after this year's holiday.

Golly. One hopes the suction tube is slender and admits nothing else of interest that might be in that bog? Are there old books on the ancient ways of this harvest? Must look into this.
Great shot!
