Grapes

Brix Napa Valley, Yountville, California

Those grapes will be blue in about one or two weeks, they have a very different taste then the ones you often buy at the grocery store.

So good and refreshing for summer snacks!

The Grapes around here have been so sweet and juicy I love to keep them around just to snack on !

yay, we've got grapes in our garden

From the garden, an old style grape. Tough skin, best eaten at the end of summer beautifully sweet.

Grapes on my vine

Taken using a reversing ring and a 2X teleconverter and an old Praktica 50mm lens.

Grapes were heavy on every vine, glowing in the unexpected September sun. Harvest was to begin the next day.

This is an HDR workup that I did on a photo that I took in 2011. Western North Carolina has seen a large increase in vineyard activity over the past twenty years. If you are interested, you can view my other NC vineyard/Winery photos in a set that I put together.

Grapes on the vine.

There is so much grape harvesting going on now and so much wine making. It's that time of year. I got a lot of pix of the grapes and the wine making. Maybe I should load more on flickr.

Wine grapes

My Rainbow Lorikeet was supposed to be in this picture but he didn't have the patience.

"Colui che non sa niente, non ama niente.

Colui che non fa niente, non capisce niente, ma colui che capisce .. ama, vede, osserva ..

La maggiore conoscenza è congiunta indissolubilmente all'amore ... Chiunque crede che tutti i frutti maturino contemporaneamente come le fragole, non sa nulla dell'uva"

- Paracelso - (da E. Fromm, L'Arte di amare)

"He who knows nothing, loves nothing. He who can do nothing understands nothing. ...

But he who understands also loves, notices, sees…The more knowledge is inherent in a thing, the greater the love.. Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows nothing about grapes"

- Paracelsus - (E. Fromm, The Art of Loving)
