Hi Gordon!
On behalf of the CC here I am. I like, no, LOVE the coloring here. The wood is so warm and aged looking. The subject matter is just so photogenic and the contrast with the metal is wonderful.

In a rather abstract sense it meets the challenge, since it takes time to age wine usually, but it is sort of implied rather than clearly evident.

The perspective is ok but leaves room for improvement imho. Seeing more of one or two of the barrels with their rich character would make this image even better.

Having shallow depth of field is ok, but it would be nice to see the front barrell in focus better. There is only one barrel in relatively sharp focus, and I don't think it's sufficient. I'd like to be able to see some of the texture. Of course I realize that this is entirely up to the artist.

The lighting is very nice, and is the strength of this image.

Regards,

Grayce

HOw long do have to wait until it is ready? Like the colors in the wood contrasting with the zinc straps.

Poor DOF spoils a good idea

Good things come to those who wait, no? Like the perspective and composition for the most part. Possibly could have been a bit brighter (on my screen). Neat pic!

Wow, what a great shot. I wish more barrells were in focus. Not all, but just a few more. Light levels and perspective are fantastic. Good eye!

great Idea. To me, I would have liked seeing more of the barrels.
