Maypole dance 1991 Westminster Abbey, England DDTJRAC When I was a kid, I always looked forward to May. The first season's apricots were soon to come to market. Then the plums and peaches would appear in early summer. Back in the day our fruit came in seasons and were not imported year-round. The fruit had fragrance and taste. Not like the rubber stone fruit we got now. My favorite market for fruit was Hughes in L.A. They had a great produce dept. Ralphs eventually took them over. The cheapest fruit was at Grand Central Market downtown, L.A. Bananas were about .19 cents a pound. The bananas we had back then were different than the ones we got now. That variety died off from some disease. The variety of bananas we got now is also under fire from a disease and is predicted to eventually be gone. You check it all out. The old bananas were pretty tasty. The ones we got now are pretty bland compared to the old variety. You got some land...plant some fruit trees. If you are on the West Coast, plant some figs. Make use of your warm climate. I miss my figs trees. I grew up with white figs and Black Mission figs in L.A. Actually, you can plant figs in cold climates. But you can't grow them as a fig tree; you have to grow them as a fig bush. In winter you cut the fig canes back to a foot tall and have to winterize it. You check it all out. Lots of other things to grow besides figs; you can grow peaches, Asian pears, apples, plums and apricots. But check out your zone requirements and pollination needs before buying them. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Small Gauge Film Archive Daniel D.

Hi! It's my first video that I made back in 2017. I've found it on my PC, lil bit polished it and decided to upload. When I was shoting the video I didn't have any idea for the video. I just wanted to shot cool shots that I would like, practice my skills and just have a good time! After a while, I got a library of shots. I chose those that would look good together) At that time, I don't know any montage rules and the whole process was intuitive experiment with shots. Also, if you found any meaning in this video, I would say there was no deep meaning in the video. It's more about feeling of a summer for me. I used Canon 70D with Canon 50mm f1.8 (such a starter pack!) My behance project for the video
