La Rue Obscure is the oldest street in the old town of Villefranche sur Mer on the French Riviera, between Nice and Monaco. It was built on virgin soil at the beginning of the 13th century. La Rue Obscure formed the basis of the rest of the town’s construction on the slopes rising from this coastal lane. It gave inhabitants of the town certain refuge against possible attacks. The ship captains who were forced by storms to anchor in the bay, could make necessary repairs in safety. La Rue Obscure also welcomed precious merchandise, such as wine, in its cellars.

A view inside the beautiful cellar door at Jeannert Wines in the Clare Valley, South Australia. One of Jeanneret’s Shiraz wines is labeled ‘Cowboys n Indians’ and I tried to capture and present the essence of that wine and the wonderful atmosphere inside in this shot. You’ll see the Cowboy and Indian posters on the back wall. / See the location of Jeanneret Wines on Google Maps The host at Jeanneret, Clare is a lovely lady and you taste their beautiful wines over an aged barrel as the bar (shown in the bottom right) Thanks to the winemaker, Ben Jeanneret for buying a large framed print of this for his cellar.

Personally I think there is nothing common about it! It’s botanical name is: Calochilus robertsonii. This little beauty was photographed today at Sinclare’s Gully Winery & Cellar Door at Norton Summit in the Adelaide Hills. It is the only eco- certified cellar door in the hills & the wine is very nice. They are also restoring the bush, and it is home to some wonderful native orchids and plants, as well as some stunning bird life such as the Sacred Kingfisher & the Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoo. It was a wonderful afternoon. We had a tour through the bush & then lunch & wine under the magestic candle bark trees….which included a pair of Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos in plain view up amongst the branches. I can’t think of a better way to spend an afternoon, good company, food & wine, whilst relaxing amoungst our stunning native vegetation & wildlife…pure bliss! Sinclare’s Gully Winery & Cellar Door

Sevenhill Cellars – Clare Valley South Australia. The Jesuits, (Society of Jesus) migrated to Australia from Austria in 1848 seeking a life free from religious and political persecution. They settled at Sevenhill in the beautiful Clare Valley and established Sevenhill Cellars, which is the oldest existing winery in the Clare Valley in 1851. Initially the main purpose of the cellars was to provide sacramental wine for religious use and this has been ongoing. Sevenhill Cellars now produce white, red and fortified wines as well as sacramental wine. ... from the Sevenhill Cellars web page – history Canon 50D ; Sigma 18-200mm OS 3 frame HDR/tone mapped – so to gain the range of subtle colours in a low light situation

Taken in the Alcázares Reales, the royal palace of Seville, Spain. “The “Baths of Lady María de Padilla” are rainwater tanks beneath the Patio del Crucero. The tanks are named after María de Padilla, the mistress of Pedro the Cruel. Supposedly, Pedro fell for María and had her husband killed. María resisted his advances and poured boiling oil over her face to disfigure herself to stop Pedro’s pursuit. She became a nun and moved to a convent afterwards. She is regarded as a symbol of purity in the culture of Seville.” / Source: Wikipedia

Wine in the Barrel
I’ve been looking at some older work today… so it’s another scanned neg. At the time I was into making statements and getting the viewer to make their own stories… so there are no titles for these. All I’ll say is that at the time there was a lot of sadness involving children in the media and this was part of a series in response to that. I lived in an old farmhouse back then… it had an old disused cellar beneath it which provided an ideal backdrop… the kids were only too happy to come down and help out (read play)!!
