Penedès vines

Reason: Quality image of high enc value to three articles, I think I like it most for the 19th century art nouveau bodega in the background.
Proposed caption: The vigorous young growth of the Tempranillo grape vine vitis vinifera in a typical vineyard in the Catalan Penedès region. One of the most ancient wine regions in Europe, el Penedès is home to some of the most innovative of the so-called Old World growers.

*Support there are a couple of technical faults people may pick up on but i love it it. The composition is excellent, just enough of everything is shown and the colours are great --Childzy ¤ Talk 22:25, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Ah, the eagle eyes of FPC..! I see the sensor dust specks top center, I'll upload a retouched version. Am I missing anything else? mikaul^talk 23:07, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
~~Neutral~~ It is a nice picture, I just would like a bit less foreground and more headroom for the trees. The light leaves a little to be desired as well. Maybe someone can convince me to rethink it. -Fcb981^{(talk:contribs)} 01:46, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Support Edit 1 Thanks for letting me know about the edit mikaul, For me, the new crop does it. Great composition. Way to be brave and stop down to f/22. -Fcb981^{(talk:contribs)} 15:02, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
~~Weak Support~~ Weak because of the blur on some of the leaves in the foreground (it was probably windy that day).--HereToHelp 01:47, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak support edit 1 Marginally better.--Here T oHelp 00:10, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. It's nice, but I don't suppose you'd have a version with a little more space at the top, in particular a bit more space above the tower, and the cut-off tree not being cut-off? --jjron 08:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I do.. I cropped it from 3:2 from the top, to balance the shot and draw the eye to the vines; I suppose it could afford a fraction more. I'll post up a different version later. mikaul^talk 09:16, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - I've added Edit 1, with a bit more contrast, sensor dust removed and the top of the tree left in. mikaul^talk 18:36, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - Weak Support Edit 1. It's still a little tighter at the top than I'd like, and that slight motion blur mentioned, presumably due to a slight breeze with the shutter speed at only 1/40s. Still nice, and seems to work well in its articles. --jjron 06:03, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support Edit 1 per HereToHelp. CillaИ X♦C [dic] 19:06, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support edit 1 --Childzy ¤ Talk 19:15, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support edit 1 I like the composition and quality.--Svetovid 23:22, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support edit 1 Far better than the first. Attractive shot. -- Chris B • talk • contribs 16:06, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
