Healdsburg, California

At a wine-tasting at the Jordan winery in Healdsburg California, it's important to focus on what matters--their superb Cabernet.

Thanks everyone. No, it's not college hoops in the background. It's a slide show about the Jordan winery.

I really enjoy this if for any reason I love a fine glass of wine. Unfortunately all alcohol is on the do not consume list for the near future. Paul

Whitebalance let colors appeal very pleasing now and the choice of this shot is fitting the topic very well, intimate closeness, not only to the camera but also between the two people. The wine looks noble and intense. -Gerald

Thanks Traveller, the tasting room does have pretty warm lighting, but I see what you mean about the yellow. I reprocessed it with a custom WB and a tighter crop.

Excellent! a little heavy on the yellow...have you tried color balance? I have and sometimes leave the yellow as the most natural, in the final analysis...but I love the shot. Best Wishes, Traveller
