After rain and wind have knocked most of the leaves off. This is late in the fall season when winter is approaching. Shot with Hasselblad on Velvia Film with a tobacco filter. No photoshop, right out of the camera.

This shot was taken many years ago at what was then Martini and Prati Winery and is now Martin Ray Winery. Shot with my trusty Hasselblad (the camera that went to the moon, not mine but Nasa’s) on Velvia film. Makes me want to go shoot some film again!

Classic Grape leaf photograph. Shooting Autumn Grape leafs is like shooting the Golden Gate bridge, it’s been shot a million times by pros and amateurs. This is my version

I love this time of year for the rows of color in the vineyards. The grapes are picked but the foliage now gets to show off.

I don’t usually dress the house for Halloween but this year I was inspired. With the help of my son we went a little crazy. Skeletons, grave stones, dead flowers, ravens, rats, fog machine, strobes and sound effects. We had my son and six of his friends all dressed and ready to scare.

A different angle on wine. I like when clients (thank you Sandi) want to show a little creativity. Shooting from above and dramatic lighting is always a good change. Smith & Hook Cabernet is from the Central Coast of California.

This wine is a very good Cabernet. It is packaged in a tube. Yes, a tube. It is an innovative idea and the packaging is very environmentally responsible. Great for restaurants but I have one in my home. It holds 24 glasses so make sure you have friends over! I shot this in a restaurant in Santa Rosa, CA.

At every kid’s school play, at least one child peeks out from the curtain to see if their parents are still out there.

This is John Kinney working in his winery. His winery, Occasio, has a very clean and tidy tank room. I am a sucker for stainless steel equipment, labs and forklifts. I love the yin and yang (thanks FJ) of the winemakers in the vineyards with dirt, grapes, vines and then in the clean tank rooms, chemistry labs, barrels and bottling lines. It is a long way from grape to glass.

I love the smell of wine barrels in a cave. The color of the staining from the red wine gives the barrels a wonderful patina.
