Wow, beautiful scene. I love the contrast between the austere foreground and the richly colored vineyard. I want to congratulate you for catching it at such a wonderful moment to get the light on those vines despite the weather, and then I remembered the challenge and want to congragulate you again on bubling up the very best in this scene for the viewer, regardless of the circumstances. Well done.
Wow. What magical light you had here. im just feeling that maybe there are two images here. Would love to have seen the focus to have been on top 2/3 of thw scene. The pond and growth in the f/g is just not gelling with the above scene and a real pity. The rolling hill with the vines and light and clouds over the hill is just magic and this allone would have been a top image for me 7
Very attractive image. I figured out a while ago that the cloudy sky is not much favored by HDR. The water is wonderful, but the vines are a touch too saturated (more of the patchy shadow of the clouds would have been lovely) and the sky belongs stylistically to a different picture. It's certainly a place you want to revisit.
What a glorious view. I feel that the saturation has been pushed beyond acceptable for me, especially in the reds. And I think you could have easily cropped a good portion off the bottom.
