In La Vanguardia Readers' Photos we can contemplate the day and dusk of the vineyards in autumn, from Torrelavit (day) and Sant Pau d'Ordal (sunset), in Subirats, in Alt Penedès.
As you can see, at this time of year the vineyards have mutated from the summer green color of their buds to the yellowish and brown colors of autumn, waiting for the buds (leaves) to fall at the beginning of winter for their return to spring.
Now the farmers, once the grapes have been harvested, have taken the opportunity to till the land, to accumulate water in the soil and eliminate weeds.
And they will begin to prune the vines, a key job during the winter, since the negative part of the vineyard is reduced, limiting its natural growth, to improve the quality of the grapes and their yield.
At sunset in the vineyards of Sant Pau d'Ordal, the sky shines bright with the phenomenon of the candilazo, which brings this orange tone to the last moments of the day in Alt Penedès.
