Douro Valley

A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Douro Valley is the oldest regulated wine region in the world.
For centuries, its dramatic hillsides have been sculpted by hand into the iconic stone terraces that cradle the historic vines used to produce Port wine.

This photo evokes a choir of sopranos and tenors singing, their voices resonating across the valley. The lime green represents the sopranos, recalling the young leaves that emerge in early spring. They stand out all the more vividly thanks to the contrast with the darker shade of green (the tenors). ~VVVVV++~
