Matthew Walters

Beautiful shot Simon. I love the lighting and the way you have caught the dust. The LB adds a great feel of age to the picture.
Simon Whittaker replied

Wow, thanks so much for the comment Mat, I really appreciate it. The LB is fast becoming my favourite lens.
Jim DeMore

Simon,
Love the look and feel of this shot. I feel that I’m privileged to be looking into a space I probably shouldn’t be…a space that has been undisturbed for quite some time. This this your wine cellar?

Simon Whittaker replied

Hey mate, thanks for taking the time to sneak a peak. I am sad to say that we bought the wine rack despite the fact my wife and I don’t really drink wine it just looked so nice and we had been given all this wine by a friend. As for the dust, well that is just a combination of plain slackness and a sign of a very busy household.
Jim DeMore

Really thought you and the wife went out on a tour of a winery and ventured away from the group…to see the “good stuff””!
Simon Whittaker replied

I am flattered Jim, If you send me your email address I will send you a couple of other photos if you like, they just aren’t candidates for RB. I called this shot “vino” because I was thinking I owed you a B&W and I think DeMore would have to be an Italian surname? So that is my dedication to you.
Thanks again mate and keep outa that wind!
Jim DeMore

Thanks again Simon and yes DeMore is very Italian. My Dad…100%. Will send e-mail adress on BMail.

Very good image, Simon. I really like the perspective, the lighting, and the shadow-play. Great work.
Simon Whittaker replied

Thanks mate, I really appreciate your feedback. Hope you and yours are well and thanks for the favouriting.
Di Jenkins

Great shot Simon! Perhaps you could add this to the Vineyards & Wineries group?
Simon Whittaker replied

Will do, thanks for the tip – I didn’t even know there was one! Thanks for favouriting also.
Steve Chapple

Great shot, the use of light and shadows works so well here!
Simon Whittaker replied

Thanks Stephen, you have some fantastic work in your portfolio. Thanks so much for the comment.
Von McKnelly

A classic shot…dusty bottles and lighting here are brilliant!
I love my wine Simon just wish I could collect more instead of drinking all of it as soon as I get it home.
Simon Whittaker replied

Ha ha ha, I have the perfect solution. Re-cork the bottles and keep them in the “reviewed” section, if you can’t drink the stuff you may as well collect beer coasters! Thanks for the compliment too – love your work.
niggle

well captured
Simon Whittaker replied

Cora Wandel

Hi Simon, a witty statement and great photograph. I realized I had not been getting any notiifcations of you adding work to your portfolio, and I was surprised to see that you were not on my watchlist. I remember favoriting some pictures of yours, but I failed to put you on my watchlist. I apologize for this for I really want to stay on stop of all your work. Take care, Cora
Simon Whittaker replied

Thanks Cora, and thanks for adding me to your watchlist – don’t worry I’ve done it a few times too. I also deeply appreciate your support of my work!

Lois Romer

What a shame, I treid the best combo on friday night, white wine and coffee served at same time and drunk alternatively whilst watching a movie and also eating lindt chocolate balls as well. It wasn sensational.
Simon Whittaker replied

Sounds great!

The B&W is such a lovely choice for a truly atmospheric vintage look….sometimes the best shots are right under our noses are’nt they? LOL :0)
Simon Whittaker replied

Ha ha absolutely! Thanks for having a look.
x- pose Klaus ...

Brilliant, so inviting!!!!!!!! Time to plan a special dinner with a great bottle of wine ;-))

Maxoperandi

A very slick image…love the BW and the lens baby dof…would make a fantastic large canvas for a wine bar! Could also work well in sepia…
Simon Whittaker replied

Thanks for the comment and kind words – I am acutely embarrased that you made this 6 months ago but I missed it!
Apologies :-)
