Most years in the fall, near our anniversary, I make a Napa/Sonoma shot that depicts the harvest time in the area. I find the Fall season to be magical and one of the best to photograph in California's wine making region. The colors are crisp and vivid and it seems that around every turn in the road there's a new and inspiring place to explore and photograph. The area has an interesting mix of agricultural industry, California history and pure natural beauty that has just captured my imagination. I always think that I've been down every road, no matter how small or remote, but then I discover something new like the shot below at Cuvaison's facility in the Carneros region... They have 2 facilities, one in Carneros and one in Calistoga. So you see, now I have to plan a trip to Calistoga, as I think I have never been to the one in Calistoga, at the north end of the Napa Valley. If they have a scene there as inspiring as this one in Carneros, I wonder what they have to offer in Calistoga... mmmmmm?
I've uploaded a few shots from our anniversary trip this year... drop me a message of which should be the shot for 2009. You can click on each shot for a larger view. Enjoy!
We are so lucky to have these spectacular regions nearby. There are breathtaking views everywhere you look... even looking up like the last shot. Enjoy!

I love the closeup of the leaf. Do you mind if I print that one out?
ReplyDeleteI also like the one of the sky and trees. I'd like to see that one in color too.
Enjoy! Let me know and I'll give it to you in the right size and resolution.
