You might need to go large to see it. After doing some work today, I set out on a bliphunt, thinking I was sure to find some grape harvesters. Nope! In my fruitless search I ended up at the abbey of Fontfroide, 25 km away. At this point I decided to give up, but I took a quick photo while I was there, and also bought a bottle of wine and some new wine glasses.

The grape harvest is nearly invisible nowadays. Few vines are harvested manually now, so you have to seek out the drone of a machine -- often in the small hours to keep the grapes cool, especially given how hot it still is.
