This was taken with my first digital camera, a point & shoot Pentax Optio S5i. I didn’t know much about composition or anything at that time. I just loved taking photos! This was taken in the middle of the day. It was overcast, and just a blah day in terms of weather. I don’t really care because this photo holds such strong memories for me! In all my travels, this is still one of my favourite days. I was trying to cram so much into one photo: the hills & vineyards of the Burgundy wine region, the rooftops & the church in the village, the tiny winding road, and the wall which has probably been there for centuries.

As I said in the thread, playing with cropping & photo treatments has given new life to my beloved travel photos! I used five different My Four Hens actions from the Dreamweaver collection: Echo + Simple Brighten + Simple Sally + Edgy (sharpen) + Dream Matte. The greens are a little too saturated, so I need to play around some more with the actions, but overall I’m very happy with the photo!

Thanks for looking & reading my story!
