Second - Sparkling Wine on the Vine
by Denise

Mumm Napa Valley

The vines were filled with gorgeous purple grapes. All of a sudden I saw a twinkling through the vines and there was this little bunch of very colorful grapes contrasting with the green leaves. If not for the Challenge, I am not sure I would have ever seen this little cluster. One of the reasons I love the Challenges, I see and look at things differently.

All the appropriate oohs and aahs. Just gorgeous light, well captured. And another example of the photographic eye finding more beauty in the details than the average person sees in the whole scene.

Indeed, the lighting is perfect. I think this picture is good for advertisement! Ela

First the baloons and now grapes ... with excellent lighting, making the fruit look so tempting that I will like to join Harvey to eat them. Execellent shot, Denise!

Nice shot Denise, I like the way the backlighting lights those grapes up! Nice composition of an interesting subject.

This is so attractive that the grapes seem to say: "Eat now, don't wait for the wine".

Really gorgeous shot, Denise. What a variety of colors and the lighting is fantastic - making some of the grapes almost transparent. Great find!
