And the winner is Jeff Hartvigsen from Winnetka, Illinois, USA

Jeff’s photo is not only formally perfect, which is what you would expect from a professional photographer as he is, but also affords that internal, subliminal, non-written message that makes the difference.
It’s all about family and home: basic values that can make life something special. You don’t need a lot of details to enhance a simple concept. 
Jeff captured his mother-in-law Ginny, waving to him from their residence and the smoke coming out of Dina’s wood burning oven; you don’t need anything more: that’s Family and Home. 
Bravo! 

We are continually increasing our photo gallery and encourage all of our owners to email reception with their own favorite photos in high resolution of Borgo di Vagli. Each month one high resolution picture is chosen and circulated electronically, the owner will be presented with a bottle of Brunello di Montalcino when next at the hamlet.
