Springtime Vines

With the arrival of spring, the grape vines once again start to take life. The wineries are hoping for favorable weather and eventually, some tasty wines. I'll be away for two weeks as I'm going to the island of Sardinia for my daughters wedding. I think I have an important role in the ceremony (lol)! As always, thank you for looking and leaving a comment.

It is a lovely view with the rows of the vines in fresh green and the misty view of the mountain behind them. I had to make a short speech at my daughter's wedding. Hope you are prepared for that Doug!

Congratulations Doug with the wedding of your daughter. Hope she will have a good and lucky life.

Thanks for this fine image of these (Italian?) grape vines. The blueish mountain background performs a good contrast against the lush green. Well done my friend.

Wonderful photo and angle. I especially like the vivid green against the texture and light blue of the mountain, works really well.

Doug - Excellent point of view for this photo. The hillside vineyard, fruit trees and bushes, with the many lines of vine trellises and such, with the distant mountainside as backdrop - wonderful composition.

I'm sure after a few more glasses from the vineyard you'll remember what you need to do at the wedding.
A great capture of the vineyard, Doug. Nice lines, lighting and colours in the photo.
