I shot these photos last June in British Columbia, Canada. This is the Okanagon Valley where rich soil and good rainfall make excellent conditions for growing. We saw many fruit farms where the sweet cherries were in their first pick. Wineries and general farming benefit from mists where the sky touches the earth. It is a truly beautiful place.

From the looks of these photos, I have to agree - A truly beautiful place! I love those mountains in the background - Wonderful
I agree that it is a beautiful place. Also, you have a beautiful way of expressing yourself in words, for example, your use of the statement "Wineries and general farming benefit from mists where the sky touches the earth."
Awesome place! Beautiful shots, too!
The winery shot is awesome. Manicured nature, how beautiful!
Gorgeous place Mark--and beautiful photos. I have a blog friend who lives in British Columbia--and she always posts such beautiful pictures. Must be a fabulous place.

That has to be Blue Mountain on the right. I really like wine from the winery (this one?) called "Blue Mountain" and the label shows the mountain.
Very good call... it is indeed the Blue Mountain Winery. If I were a grape I'd love it here.
Certainly does look wonderful.
Hard to pick a favorite with these two - they're both beautiful. I like how the clouds touch the mountains in the top photo.
Fantastic scenery! Really nice post.
I like both pictures. Very pretty valley in the first. A very imposing mountain over the river in the second.
Wonderful photos!
As a Cloud (ia) I say Mist is a Must!!
