Vineyards seen from a clearing in a pinewood

The autumnal late afternoon sun illuminated the vines I could see through pine trees.

I liked the contrast of the trees in the shade that highlighted the brightness of the vine leaves turning red.
This was further accentuated by the almost white stones on the ground that were reflecting the light.
