The times are changing, too, and July is coming to an end. I decided to end Becky’s Square Tree Challenge with a tree from my neighbourhood.

Tag: vineyard
I’m a Fan of Vineyards
Our running group went into the vineyards of the Rheingau on the weekend.
It was like being in a sea of vines.
It was like being in a maze.
The important thing though: the grapes are well on the way.
Schdolz bin isch uf Schriese,
uf soin gude Woi. = I’m proud of Schriesheim and its good wine.

Windows on wine
If you didn’t know that the city of Frankfurt has a vineyard of its own, you’re not alone. We didn’t know either. And we certainly didn’t expect to find it 20km outside of Frankfurt, in Hochheim am Main.
Here are the windows of the estate, new and old combined:

A vine for all seasons
Vineyards always give great opportunities for photos with a definite vanishing point, no matter what time of year it is.
winter
spring
summer
autumn
For A Photo a Week: vanishing point.
Interesting (yet completely irrelevant) fact: In German, it’s an “escape point”, not a vanishing point.
More photos with more vanishing points can be found here.
