Yesterday was spent in Napa/Sonoma, camera in hand, exploring the vineyards as the grapes approach harvest.

I was so excited to find a beautiful Pinot Noir vineyard! My favorite grape to photograph. There is something about this grape that actually has a little glow to it. It is easiest to capture the glow in the early morning light, but evening can produce a nice look as well.

This bunch is just ripening and is going through véraison (displaying grapes of different colors and stages of ripening). I just thought these grapes were amazingly beautiful. Sigh : )
