The Napa Valley was gorgeous yesterday.

Thanks Everyone. I loved the background colors too. One of the reasons, I didn't crop it as much. Thanks to bottles' suggestion, it is now a much better image. I was having a blast shooting pics of the vineyards when all of a sudden I noticed all the olive trees.

What can *I* say? They said it before: outstanding composition and light; *perfect* DOF! -- db.

Wow. Gives a strong impression. I like the fuzzy background colours. jrdu

Very effective DOF and lighting here.

Great composition - I love the colors, and the DOF! I like this crop much better than the other one.

I agree. I had cropped some off the bottom already but not enough. Thanks!! Original Version in the Demo Gallery.

I really like the simplicity of this shot Denise, along with the slight color in the background. * I'd probably do a little cropping (maybe a little off the right side and even more off the bottom) but that's just a matter of preference of course. Lovely shot in any case and a great entry for the challenge.
