There is nothing better than to visit the winelands in the Western Cape of South Africa, on holiday or on a Sunday, and to enjoy the beauty of the rural setting. Of course there is wine tasting, cheese tasting, restaurants and interesting little shops to visit too but my favorite thing to do is to wonder about and appreciate the peace and quiet of the surrounds; and hopefully find a picturesque view to inspire my creativity.
This scene has special memories as we and our two daughters enjoyed this particular visit. The image never quite looks the same on the computer than in reality when it comes to the portrayal of the colours but its good enough.
Which image do you prefer? The horizontal [landscape] or the vertical [portrait] view? Please let me know, I am interested in your thoughts.
Take care.

Sounds like you had a great time. Your part of the world is so interesting.
The vertical one for me seems to offer more views of the horizon.

The landscape looks wide open whereas the vertical one looks like it could be leading you up a path… But where to?

Yes interesting a mystery to the path of the unknown. If you are looking at a book cover or a journal then the vertical image does justice to it. The landscape one is very straight forward no suspense to it like the other one you mentioned which has something to explore…

I always find it interesting to look at how an image can be cropped for different emphasis…. Like for a book cover or journal cover

l flipped between both and liked both. But I wondered what it would look like with more of the left side cropped and leaving more of the line trees on the right. I think the trees added more to the perspective of the scene. I do love the colors and the shadows too.
