    Next years wine

    I took a walk by the coast last weekend it was very windy, cloudy and cold but also invigorating, along the way I came across this vineyard and I was taken by the lines of plants. I took several shots from several angles but upon closer inspection at home I realised they were all too blurred, due to the wind blowing everything (including me and the tripod) about !
    EXCEPT THIS ONE:

    Next years wine

    I played around because I DID know what I wanted but wasn't sure I could draw it out of the shot (I felt a bit like a sculpter staring at a lump of rock or wood waiting for inspiration) and decided to crop it:

    Next years wine

    I have applied some local contrast, some minor sharpening and a curves adjustment plus removing annoying sensor spots
    All and any CC more than welcome
    Thanks

    A lump of rock turned into painting.

    And an excellent decision you made. That works really well. Well done on 'seeing' that image in the original. I don't always automatically think 'panorama' and probably would not have seen this. Beautifully balanced composition.
