Hi Alexandra,

Beautiful images in a beautiful place.

My favorite is the image with the cloud and the rain pouring out of it. Very well done.

Also the early morning images with the fog.


regards Rainer

Thanks for posting these Alexandra...the vineyard looks like a great getaway :bow

The solar viewing crowd is a nicer addition. Did nay of these folks have any idea of what the sun 'is' or how it 'work' (if you get what I mean) or was it a completely new experience to them?

BTW, my grapes are ready to harvest...could use your feet :lol:

Thanks everyone :) having a fantastic time. Brian, my feet are available to rent anytime, you just need to pay for the air fare :lol:

The storm was incredible, it kept getting bigger during night fall and I was able to capture a video of lightning going around the top.
