If I'd had a 1990 Cote de Beaune I probably wouldn't have been swilling
it down on top of a couple of barbecued snags either......
And in the U.S. version of the English language, "barbecued snags" would be?
A vertical composition could work if you wanted to emphasize the
foreground reflection of the trees. I might try something like that.
Wouldn't be the first time it didn't work either.
