For our anniversary this year, we went out to Yakima Valley for a combination of wine tasting and photo-taking.  We were wrapping up our 10-week photography class, and we had to submit the Final Project the following week.

First of all, doing wine tasting in Yakima Valley is pretty difficult. There are ~5 or 6 distinct sets of sub-regions. These sub-regions can be over 70 miles apart at either end.  The second issue is that there are some ‘can’t miss’ wineries and there are some, well, that can be missed.

For one of our projects, we were doing HDR landscapes. After a day of drinking wine (excuse me, ‘tasting’), we enjoyed the end of the day over some vineyards.  Today’s shot is nearing the end of the day, but not quite sunset.  Not really sure who’s vineyard this is, but the sun was perfect and my wine-buzz was just right.
