My first grape shots from the Hunter Wine Weekend. These ones depict different aspects of the vintage. For a larger version, click a pic.

Peter, these are amazing shots, imo. I really love the first 3, especially 2 and 3. I reckon you'd be able to sell them to the winery!

Lovely images Peter. Colour is vibrant, images sharp and well composed. #1 perhaps a little over filled, pardon the pun. #2 is a standout for its simplicity and subtlety. Love the graded pastel tones terrific composition and OOF background really sets it apart as a quality image that would be at home in a fine wines magazine. :)
cheers

I agree - Great colours Peter. #1 is a little over done with the fill flash - lighting amongst vines can be a real horror. #2 for me.

I love #2, it almost has me heading off to the wine rack for a Shiraz

Some more great shots Peter.

#1 Least favourite of the bunch, I tend to agree the fill flash may have been a little over done

#2 Really like the bokeh and sharpness in this one, a great 'on the vine' shot

#3 Gorgeous and my favourite of the bunch... This one just works really well and keeps your interest, nicely done

#4 Nice action shot, I may have cropped it closer to remove a little of the distraction.. and get less of the stripey shirt in the shot

#5 Nice shot, it's good to see someone tasting the stuff (hasn't been much photographic evidence to prove that so far) not that I'm doubting a lot of wine was consumed :)

#6 Love this one too, almost feel like jumping in for a swim.. (is it good for the skin?) :shock: :?

Great work Peter!
