This shot seems like a place somewhere in Portugal. Beautiful country, landscape and scenery composition in a Mosel vine-yards. Oporto before dinner and Mosel I think also and after!. Really here you have a great composition, good colors, contrast and composition. The wine as a final product I will wait for it and quality, because in this shot you have it!

A very fine composing you did here,Hans.Great contrast work with the bright green in the foreground and the dark-green in the background on the hill,lying in the shadow.

Interesting subject. Every square inch used to plant a Riesling vine. For me it is surprising that they can be cultivated in not a flat surface.
Beatiful foreground with those leafs but I think that to have seen a couple of grapebunchs would be better.
As weakness I think that the light is not very balanced (too much in the foreground and not on the mountain) and that the white spots do not help and can be erased.

Bonsoir Hans,
J'aime beaucoup cette composition avec ces feuilles de vigne en avant-plan qui mène notre regard sur le coteau finement divisé en parcelles pour aller rejoindre une petite forêt.
Les couleurs sont très belles (j'aime beaucoup le camaïeu de vert).
J'aime beaucoup.
Très bien vu Hans.
Philippe

Beste Hans, sorry maar het wordt moeilijker om nog iemand te vinden met de nieuwkomers maar hier ben ik dan.
U heeft blijkbaar de weg gevonden van nwoehnl, in Duitsland en dan nog bij de mooie wijngaarden, al de verdeelde perselen op de berg helling maken uw foto zo groot en prachtig van kleur, de mooie groenen zomer kleuren maken hier alles zeer vriendelijk.
Groeten,
John

Very interesting place! Here you can get great geometrical effects using the vineyards. Interesting POV, by using the vines to create a detail in the foreground. I feel that they are a bit too bright though. Reducing the highlights could balance the exposure between the foreground and background balancing the image.

Interesing POV - the various shades of green and the shape of the hillside makes for a very good shot - the sky might be a touch overdone - or is it that it's been so long since I saw blue sky :)

Very nice landscape with very nice angle of shot.
Regards, Hayri.

Interesting perspective Hans, beautiful green and nice field, nice lines toward the top of the hill, very clear, well done.

Great view.I like the colors and the contrasts.Good light,textures and sharpness.Very good point of view and DOF.Good job!

Great perspective in your picture! I like all the differt kinds of green! Good composition! Well done!

jemaflor (38911) 2005-01-18 9:49

Well framed, a triangular composition.
But may be a bit too ligthness for the green colour on foregroud. The perspective is also very well seen.

jrj (34779) 2005-01-19 15:41

A bit overexposed in the front, still a fine total impression where just the front adds a fine natural framing. Good perspective of the landscape.

Oh - very lovely view and compostion - I like mix of colours and the mountain (Pyramid) in the background - thanks Hans and congratulation with the fine result.

dominique (11403) 2005-01-20 15:55

Un cadrage vraiment original , j'aime les couleurs aussi , la lumiere venant du soleil est parfaite , beau travail .

hojper (2830) 2005-01-20 16:33

I wonder if you used fill-in flash to get those leaves so light in the foreground. But it works well and the perspective of that mountain (pyramid) is impressive. A little more blue sky to balance all that green would even have been welcome.

RGatward (19737) 2005-01-21 9:28

Clever compo here. Nicely framed landscape with a cloe-up of the features which form it. Great idea.

bazal (7898) 2005-01-27 3:58

Nice colors (with all these geen tones)and good POV for an interesting composition. This landscape is really scenic and I like the multiple lines that give a real dynamism to your picture. Very nice light. Well Seen !

Georges (11183) 2005-01-30 4:36

Cette image est pour moi bien pensé et pas facile a realiser car ici il fallait eviter le piege des feuilles qui auraient pus etre en surexposition .
Belle PDF qui nous offre toute la scene en arriere plan bravo Hans

singuanti (15240) 2005-02-10 20:41

this is a great shot because of the great POV looking up. You get a great sense of scale and place with the shooting angle. i love the rich greens and the lines created by the vineyards. great work.
