---Greetings from the Critique Club!---
First impression - I wish I owned a vineyard! ;-)
Meets the challenge - OK, but . . . the shadow doesn't really add to the quality of the photo, IMO.
While this is indeed a shadow, if not for the challenge category, this picture does not do well on its own. The shadow gets in the way of a really nice scene that is particularly well photographed.
The choice to go black & white was a good one. The burning down in the sky area is a little over done though. The image is clear and crisp but lacks a true focal point. The eyes do not have a place to settle in within the picture area.
It is a nice photo that is exposed well and processed well. I think a more distinct focal point would have helped this entry a lot.
I hope this was helpful. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
David

The image is exceptionaly sharp and makes a good B&W. Tones are very nice. Wish mine were as nice. The use of shadow is weak in this composition for this particular challenge and the sky is unrealistically darkened. |

Very dramatic. I think the shadow would have more impact if this were in color though. |
