I wasn’t enthused, but I do enjoy shooting with Laura. In fact I haven’t been enthused about many shoots this year. It’s not been a wonderfully healthy year for me, so I’ve stayed close to Sacramento. And, I haven’t been overjoyed with my images either. I may be just too critical, or it might be that I haven’t traveled any distance to shoot something different.
So when Laura suggested we look for Fall color in Napa, I said the vines are turning brown. She said they were changing color! She also wanted to pick up some wine. Off we went down the Silverado Trail where many wineries and vineyards are found.
She was right. The vines did give us some color. The fog gave us some drama. The eventual sun gave us some good lighting. And, Laura got her wine!
I’m glad I went on this outing. All I had to do was sit and enjoy conversation while she drove.
Beauty in dying vines. Fall color. Morning fog. A valley tree framed. You know I love macro. Nice sculpture at a winery. Carefully placed to look fallen! I’m watching you! Valley color, fog and mountains. My favorite, a red rose. White rose beauty. Mega Fall color. A welcome from a patriotic cow! Vineyard of brown and red.
