Red barn, Hood River, Oregon

I have been to the pear orchard a couple of times this year, but it's still a tiny bit early. Reviewed this from 2018, and I think this is about the best I am going to get although I wish it were a bit further back. Feeling a bit discouraged. Went early and stood there for a very long time to get my preferred spot with my daughter who was shooting in the next row, and there were 4 photographers breathing down my neck most of the time. Find a different spot, for god's sake! There can't be only one spot in acres of orchard! How do you guys handle? At the famous maple tree in the PDX Japanese Garden when the sun is coming through the tree and there are 30 people desperately waiting to shoot, I make the totally inconsiderate person who has shot 10,000 frames for half an hour move so someone else gets a chance, but that is a case where there are only 2 tiny spots that you can shoot from--not literally acres. That year, I sat in front of the tree for 1-1/2 minutes and got the shot I wanted without issue-and then moved immediately so the next guy could get their chance!
