Description These grapes, backlit by the afternoon sun, were being left on the vine until a sufficiently cold day appeared, at which point they would be picked to produce "Ice Wine".

This is amazing.. The warm tones and the juiciness of the berries! They look sooo delicious, haha. I miss grapes, as it is now winter there is very little good fruit in Alaska .

I also like the star of light in the upper right, it adds a lot of character I believe .

thanks Chris and for the to..btw..we tasted of the fruit too..apparently this is a community vineyard started by a group of French artists who were keen on developing the cultural aspects of the place and then they ran out of money..

I like the star-shaped light on the corner of the grapes....effective use of backlight on this one.

thanks Madeline..it was really tricky as the grapes were so dark and I still wanted to keep the intensity of the yellow...
