Western North Carolina Vineyards

[PCharles]

This is a photo of a local NC Vineyard. In the past this vineyard has grown grapes for wineries. Ownership changed hands earlier this year. The new owner hopes to build a winery with tasting room. It has a good location, just several miles off hwy 40 and as you can see, it's a real attractive location.

Here's a picture that I took yesterday.

Great picture Paul. Some day I have to back into photography and I'll be getting a hold of you on camera choices. I want to do close up's of insects like we see on FB.

The new name of the vineyard with winery will be South Fork. I did a search and didn't find any listing online, but have it from a good source that this is the new name.

They planted a number of new vines this year.

I say there is some "trickery" going on in that photo! :>

Beautiful as usual Paul!

Oppps, I found out that the name of the vineyard is Silver Fork, not South Fork. Here is a link to their new web page.

In regards to any trickery with the photo.... hmmmm well perhaps there was a bit. I took 5 versions of the same picture, each with a different exposure setting from low to high. I have a program that overlays the different exposures, choosing the blend that provides the best apperance. Busted!!!
