From grapes to wine

October 2017

I really enjoy the lighting and shadows in this balanced composition. The shot captures the wine cellar nice earthy wood tones and brick flooring. I like the POV leading to the last barrel at the end. It creates a nice finish to the image. A well taken shot capturing the maturing process of wine.

A nice still-life shot which is controlled and thought out quite well. I like the composition with the different elements such as the wine glass, black bottle, and white grapes. The lighting has been captured great giving a nice contrast. I enjoy the blue serviette draped over the edge of the table which helps balance the picture. The bowl of grapes looks fresh and ready to enjoy. A cool creative piece of work.

This shot is really well captured. The spill of red wine creates an interesting composition. The reflections and lighting are clear and well composed creating a nice light shadow effect. The POV is quite captivating to the eye from the spill of the leftover wine on the table to the last remains of the glass. The white background compliments the shot giving a nice dynamic. I really enjoy the angle this shot has been taken at. Nice work.

This shot is a great capture. I enjoy the curvature of the building. It's very captivating with the mountains in the background. The composition of the foreground is near symmetrical creating a nice view of the vineyard. The lighting is great with the subtle cloud shadows in the background adding a nice depth to the overall image.
