Riesling In Making Photo

Photographer’s Note

The Mosel Valley is home to the Riesling grape. Nowhere else in the world can duplicate the finesse and sharply honed structure of the Riesling as these slate-coverd slopes along the Mosel River. The Koewerich family (from the town of the same name!) have created this lovely Auslese from the 2001 vintage. The wine is bursting with the tropical fruit of ripe Riesling with bright edges of refreshing acidity. The wine comes from the village of Klusserath, just south of Piesport, one of the finest areas of the Middle Mosel district. The Kowerich estate uses a label commemorating Ludwig van Beethoven on their bottle.

Nice details, very very interessant!
I like the colors and light. Perspective is very good too.

I like the formation of clouds on the left side, they somehow go along with the grape bush, very interesting! Regards, Djenno

Hans, heeft in de wijn gezeten of gekeken, dat is geen slechte plaats om te vertoeven, waaron denk ik dat, wel, de foto is tegen de grond genomen, de semitrie opgezocht, en de grasprieten dicht tegen de lens, ik vind dit mooi gedaan Hans, een beetje experimenteel mag wel zeker! Mooi gedaan!

Ha Hans, ik heb de indruk dat je zelf ook aan een soort travelogue bezig bent, maar dan over de Moezel streek.
Ik vind je perspectief origineel en zeer goed geslaagd. De wijnranken lijken wel echte bomen. Je creeert er bovendien een goede diepte en symetrie mee; de lijnen vertrekken mooi vanuit de hoeken naar een centraal punt.

Lekker hoor Hans een koude Riesling,
Mooie plaat. met lekkere diepte erin, de kleur is bijzaak, het gaat hier om de lijnen, goed werk Hans

Lovely perspective Hans, and I love the angular repetition in the clouds.
good shot as always

Wonderful vineyard shot, Hans - great "V"-shaped perspective with strong leading lines you get from your low shooting angle. Great color contrast with the bright blue and cloudy sky. Well done.

An angle of view at the level of a tiny animal like a fox
You could precise it's probably the most northern local vineyeards of Europe

Jeppe (18623) 2004-09-02 17:20

Great and different angle you got here - I like the V-shape of the view and the fine blue sky as background - thanks Hans - a fine work indeed.

Bien bel endroit où est fabriqué un bien bon vin. La vigne , vignerons métier dur , mais quelle récompence un bon vin.
Amitié.

Tres belle compo parmi les vignoles,ma destination de ce week end en Moselle,pas loin des vendanges.Superbe perpective.Merci Hans.Bon Week end.Phil

Endy (1025) 2004-09-03 20:06

Splendid perspective Hans and nice symetric view! The selected point of view to frame the vines is excellent, it transforms an ordinary subject (the vines) to an elegant subject at ground level!

RGatward (19737) 2004-09-04 2:28

Interest PoV, which works, mainly because of the interesting sky.

strangiato (76) 2004-09-04 3:20

Weer een perfekt voorbeeld van de mogelijkheden van je camera. Een aparte foto en daarvoor ben ik altijd wel wakker te maken (in de middag dan).

Rhiannon (1726) 2004-09-08 5:13

Hi Hans!
I really like you POV here. Very well thought out and composed. Excellent colours. I like how the clouds seeme to be syncronized with the lines of grapes.
Riesling wines are one of my favourites, by the way :)
Well done!

taypejka (1059) 2006-05-06 4:03

Dear Hans,

Great perspective, I really like your idea of creating letter "V" from grape trees and amazingly interesting sky (you can even see a small whirlwind in it :) Green beautifully corresponds with blue. Warm greetings from
