I took this photo during litchi harvest time in November in Fiadanana, Madagascar. It shows my friends Andrea and Elva separating the fruit form the branch so that they could be packed in baskets and sold to drivers that would bring them to the bigger cities or abroad. We harvested the litchis by having my neighbor Adelaide climb into the tree, cut down branches, fill a basket and rope it down. The fruit was delicious and served as an important amount of income for my village.
