This is my application for the contest Shadow Hunters Community SMASh Contest- Round 441 by @melinda010100

Hey, @melinda010100.
How’s it going?
Last week I bought a mobile light for photography.
I arrived home from the office in the dark and decided to pick apples and pears that had fallen from the trees. I took a camera and a lighting device with me to experiment with the light.
I wanted to take photos of apples and pears.
Frost formed on the windshield of the car last night and I saw frost on the grass this morning.

I also had to feed the dog, and when I went into the old rabbit house where the dog food is stored, I saw a large grasshopper sitting upside down on the doorway. Here is an object for experimenting with light. I need to get the shadow of a grasshopper.

Who is it? The shadow looks like a cow! Or even a hippopotamus! Like a pregnant hippopotamus! But if you look at the shadow of the hind legs, it's some kind of scary monster!

There's a white door in the distance. There's a grasshopper sitting there. He chose a strange place. But maybe it's due to the coolness of the night.

The lighting device is located at the bottom left on the soil to highlight the apples from below. Yes, I still need to train.

These are delicious apples! But they haven't fully matured yet. But they began to fall to the ground. So I go and collect them.

This is a thin-leafed Ural pear. They are not large, about 140-150 grams, but there are a lot of them. On Saturday, I collected 20 kg from the ground. Today I'm making jam out of them and making lozenges. About 50 kg of pears are obtained from this tree. They are not sweet and tart, so we don't eat much of them fresh. They need to lie down, get a taste.

Spider. Why does he have only 5 paws? Where is the sixth? I took a few pictures from different angles, but there were no more paws.

@melinda010100, this concludes my story for today. Of course, I took a lot more photos of apples and a grasshopper. And there was another small apple tree, on which the first apples appeared this year. I don't even know what they taste like. I'll show you these pictures next time, I hope I will.
