I recently stayed at this villa while touring Tuscany. The weather was uncooperative, so I called upon Topaz Labs and Smart Photo Editor to help me out with the sky and lighting of the vineyard. As always, thank you for looking and leaving a comment.

Well composed shot of this beautiful scene Doug. Your editing has made it look very pretty in spite of the weather.

Poor boy, lol!

Doug, I was just kidding. It's a pity indeed that the weather wasn't cooperative for a photo shoot, but with your editing skills you've provided us still with a very good one.

With a good glass of wine in hand, it's a double pleasure to enjoy this fine result.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

The colour of the Villa works wonderfully with the greens of the vines and the blue sky. The vines also work well as a lead in to the rest of the photo. The building might be a bit wonky, but that might be down to the builders drinking too much of the local produce!! :)
