Description
It was quite a day. He wandered here and there, looking at everything he saw. And then, well, then he saw a passage----long, straight and he didn't know where it went. Of course, he walked right into it, walked and walked and walked. Just as he thought maybe it wasn't such a good idea, there was an end---right into a vineyard, with a tasting room at the ready. At tasting room, wine and FRIENDS, waiting to sing: "Happy Birthday to You", Chip!!!!
A vine covered walkway, somewhere in the wine growing region of California, near Paso Robles. (My sisters, and several friends hit about 10 wineries that day. I don't drink much wine, so I was the DD until finally I said, "No more---I want tequila!! It was a VERY fun day!!!)

Ooh, did you say "tasting room?" This is really marvelous, and it just goes on and on and on...all the way out thataway. I love the symmetry, but it's off a little bit from the bits of daylight shining between leaves, and so that gives an extra, little bit of oomph, because things are more different than they seem, and so there's symmetry but not repetition, and just look at your post work. It's like you painted this...it's very impressionistic, like each part of this is like a little, independent world; it's better than a jigsaw puzzle, because it's more alive. I love the way the dabs and strokes fit together and the way you can see different grades of light and color in each of them. The composition is really nice as well...that whole vanishing perspective thing just pulls you right in, and I'm hoping that the wine-tasting room is at the end, and maybe just off to the right? And you DID taste wine, didn't you? I should hope so! This rocks and I love the mood. It's alive, but it seems quiet, like it's just you, your camera, and maybe some distant birds, or a few bees doing the bee-thing, and buzzing really quietly. I love this and THANK YOU! This rocks; and it's making a trip into my favorites!

Nice shot of the cloistered runway, Maz. The long path reminds me of the old ditty: It's a long way to Tipperary, It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Tipperary…….
