Fall Vineyard

Posted by Scott F. Schilling (San Martin, United States) on 7 January 2009 in Food & Cuisine and Portfolio.

I was able to capture this image as a rare thunderstorm worked its way through our area in the early morning in October. The sun turned the underside of the clouds pink for just a few minute before rising. This is an HDR image.

EYES WIDE SHUT from The library of my soul, United Kingdom

A glorious and beautiful skyscape, ominous and threatening and yet strangely appealing. The times I have been spellbound by impending stormclouds to the point of letting them wash over me to see the spectacular visual changes as they happen.

A delightful image that really shines.

Ominous sky but I could immediately smell the grapes, feel the air. A joy to the senses.

@dogilicious: Thanks for the comment - interesting that you say you could smell the grapes - you aren't kidding. In the fall, when I walk through the vineyards, the grape/wine smell is very strong and aromatic.

Glorious colours, I like it !

@Marie LC: Marie, thanks for your kind comments! I hope all is beautiful in France this time of year.

Yonatan from Bronx, United States

Wonderful processing. I especially like the repitition and the composition of shot placing the the beautiful purple part of the sky off center.

Hi Scott, I remember you sending me this image after making it - I still really love this photograph - the touch of pink in the sky adds the perfect accent! Also, it is not an over-cooked HDR - it has a very natural feel - which can sometimes be hard to do with HDR!

@Don Smith: Don thanks for the comments! I enjoyed taking this photo because a thunderstorm through the area is more of a rarity and the HDR really helped catch the color that was created when the sunlight hit the rain on the underside of the clouds.
