Nice picture. Looks odd with a snowy mountain in the background and vineyards in front!

I must admit that I like this picture because of the alps in the background. That puts the vineyard in it's right place. For me it's the highest contrast - barren, snowy mountains and the rich, dark soil of the vineyard slope. This is a picture telling me, that we are in Switzerland and a good capture (although personally, I'm not that fond of the combination brown/blue).

I know these wineyards very well. Actually I live in the highest placed winedistrict in Europe, Visperterminen. I have been awaiting to make close-ups of the wine in the mist. "Unfortunably" the weather has been very good the last two weeks.
You have captured the wineyard very well and with a beautiful background. The framing is good too. Its very bright and clear.

The houses clinging on the ridge and the loooong slope below, beautiful. The play of lines in the slope is important for the composition and the ridge forms a nice diagonal that has parallells below. And an Alp is allways an Alp (envy). Well done!

Cette photo est très spéciale avec cet arrière plan enneigé contrastant avec la terre des vignes valaisantes. J'aime bien cette crète avec une maison très bien placée à gauche et le petit hameau à droite au dessus. Bien vu, Isabelle!

J'adore les détails de cette photo et le piqué est vraiment joli.
La montagne enneigée au dernier donne le fini parfait.
Bravo Isabelle .je la garde dans mes favorites celle la merci

Very effective contrast between the vineyard and the mountains. Wonderful clarity, too!
