Canopies of Grapes
Grapes make up the largest agriculture crop in Copiapo, Chile. The photo shows the grape vines being grown horizontally in vast canopies as to the more traditional vertical rows. The grapes however are not typically used for eating "off the vine" or for making the famous Chilean wines but for raisins. The grapes are harvested, sun dried and then processed by packing companies into the forms we have come to know today.
