a good wine

This is my submission for the 24 hours of flickr project.

Actually I wanted to take a completely different photo for this project but after taking this one (sort of warm-up) it started to rain and I couldn’t take many more photos. So I hope this one’s good enough to make it. ๐Ÿ™‚
Some details: It’s a daylight long exposure (43 sec) taken with a ND filter. This small decayed house stands in the middle of a vineyard in the federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate (Germany). This is where the good wine comes from. ๐Ÿ™‚
