Wine tasting in the South African vineyards. I have lived worst monday mornings in my life...
This place is a must see when visiting the Cape Region. One hour drive from Cape Town, you re-open your eyes and you think you are in Provence. Amazing how these two regions look the same.
The picture is taken from the Dieu Donne wine estate on the slopes of the moutains surrouding Franschoek.

Hello Patrice,
Nice POV. I love the way you can see the reflections of the beautiful scenery in the glass of wine. Excellent idea. Thank you sharing.
Cheers,
Debbie

Nice POV. The land below the table is well seen in the glass.

Quite nice picture you have here. IMO, it is a bit too blue in general but it is not a bad shot. The place looks fantastic. I like the reflection on the glass. I have done a little WS to your photo. Have a look and tell what do you think about it. Well done.

Hi
Great photo. Ok maybe a bit blue but very nice efect (and place). The focus is very good, very deep. And one thing special is the reflection on the wine glass. The white slopes in reflection means the wine is strong.....

Bonjour Patrice,
j'apprécie ici ces nuages qu'i s'accrochent aux sommets des montagnes. Le verre de vin qui rappelle les vignobles à peine dissimulés.
Le jeux de rélections et de réfractions dans le verres sont séduisants et rappellent des couleurs qu'on ne voit pas mais que l'on devine.

Un grand bonjour de Belgique.

Daniel.
