Sunset silhouette of bronze statues of Stallions Rampant at Rymill Coonawarra Winery. The two magnificent bronze stallions rampant, created by the noted sculptor Gabriel Sterk, welcome visitors to the Rymill Coonawarra Winery. Such horses have long been important to the Rymill family, and were an integral part of their business for a number of generations. Coonawarra’s terra rossa soil, with its high calcium content, raised horses with strong bones and powerful constitutions long before it became famous for the excellence of its vineyards and wines. Gabriel Sterk’s life and career have alternated between Europe and Australia. Born in Holland in 1942, he emigrated to Adelaide with his family in 1958, but his developing career and talent soon drew him back to the art treasures of Europe; first of all to Italy, and then to the Royal Academy in Holland. He now lives in France, where he sculpted the original of the stallions rampant in clay, prior to their being cast in bronze at a foundry in Holland, and then shipped to Australia where they now stand proudly before the winery, evoking the past and eliciting the future. Canon 400D – 18 -55 lens with CIR Polariser. Photoshop Cs3 for contrast.

click on feature button to view group — This is the now defunct Coonawarra train station … i.e. the village of Coonawarra in the middle of the famous wine region of the same name in South Australia. I took it while travelling between Melbourne and Adelaide in late December 2008 … we were down the road at the Wynns winery (tasting wine of course) and saw pictures of the station. We were pointed in the direction (it’s only about 1km off the main highway) and I tried a few different angles. (Taken with my NEW Nikon D90 DSLR – Tamron 17-50mm 2.8. UPDATED PIC: Minor editing with levels and curves). — / Other wine shots taken in South Australia / click on images to view / — N.B. The feature logo was prepared by me but inspired by a design originally done by Natalie Perkins

Found out yesterday that two of my images managed second and third in the Penola Coonawarra Acquisitive photographic competition!!! Made my day!!! and the prizes are pretty cool too….. Waiting…(2nd) and Stallions Rampant (third) certainly give a bit more publicity to Rymill Coonwarra Winery who are holding our exhibition. For those of you who know Shane (Smarti77) a wonderful artist with whom I share the exhibitions, it might be worth congratulating him, he sold two images on Thursday while I was hanging them in preparation for the exhibition! Well done Shane…. Back to more work!!!!!
