Grape vines in the valley.
Marlborough's autumn colours are slowly disappearing as vine-pruning contractors move in to prepare the vineyards for next season's growth.
Alapa Viticultural Services owner Alan Wilkinson has a team of 230 workers for the pruning season. The workers were from Thailand, Japan, Samoa, China, Malaysia and the Czech Republic and would stay until the end of the season in September. By that time, more than four million plants would have been pruned, stripped and wrapped. Original public domain image from Flickr
