My Cruise in Douro River Photo

Photographer’s Note

I just return from a 6 days cruise in Douro river and it was so beautiful, if you come to visit Portugal don’t miss this kind of trip. The Douro's valley is amazing!
The Douro vinhateiro, an area of the Douro Valley in Portugal was classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Patrimony Sight. These reaches of the Douro have a microclimate allowing for cultivation of olives, almonds, and especially grapes important for making the famous Port wine, so... don't forget to taste the fabulous Porto wine ;-)

Nat,
Your composition and POV are great here showing the vineyards in the foreground with the river and boat in the background. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail. I just returned from a river cruise on the Danube, Main, Moselle and Rhine rivers and this scene is very similar to the ones we enjoyed.
TFS,
Asa
