Hola Oscar,

Mucho vino bueno que nos presentas. Me encanta beber vino asi que esta foto me llama mucho la atencion. Buena toma con una nota muy ineteresante. La luz en la parte baja es muy sobrexpuesta sin embargo la composicion en general me gusta. Thanks for sharing :-)

Hi Oscar,

Charlton Heston doesn’t have the same nice reputation since he’s an activist for the right to have guns and riffles in the States ( what an old freak...), but he have a very nice handwritting, impeccable script, particularly in the word «best».... Could I be more specific...

Very nice photo, even more appealling from a north american point of view, where these noble traditions doesn’t occure... OK, maybe in California, but it doesn’t have the same flair...

The floor is a little bit over exposed, but you had to deal with a large range of light and you choose to obtain the right exposure for the barrels. Your composition present an odd number of barrel tops which is perfect.

Ciao!

Foto insustancial y sin personalidad.

Casi la mitad de la foto está en blanco. Y el resto se pierde en motivos que no llaman por su especial interés.

Dada esta preocupante falta de puntos de interés, con un poco de paciencia podrías haber incluído a alguien en la foto.
Y si no hay paciencia le dices a tu compañero que haga como quien no sabe de qué va la cosa y pasee por delante de la cámara.

Lo mejor el tono dorado que crea la luz en determinadas partes de la foto y la firma del amigo de Messala.

Narcís Reyerta.

Hi Oscar,
This photo are very good with a nice composition in a good POV. The light are excelent to improve this beautiful colors.
In Portugal also we have the tradition to drink wine, thus also we have excellent wineries like "Oporto winerie" in the north of the country and some in the Alentejo (South of the country).
Great Photo,

Hi Oscar,
Interesting theme and interesting tradition. Beautiful brown tones and round barrel shapes. I'd crop the overexposed part off.

Hola Óscar,
bona i suggerent foto, amb aquestes botes signades pels famosos que visitaven les bodegues Domecq. Una llum directa i difícil que t'ha sobreexposat una miqueta el terra, encara que això no malmet la qualitat de la foto, que és molt senzilla, té equilibri i m'agrada.
Salut,
Josep

Hola Oscar

No sabia de que tenias tanta adiccion al vino. Lo mejor la definicion y los tonos dorados que dice Narcis pero la parte inferior no me gusta mucho.

Pues nada nos vemos.

Hola Oscar.
Una foto interesante por su contenido de las barricas firmadas por personas famosas, tu punto de vista esta bueno aunque en mi humilde opinion le hubiera cortado quizas algo del suelo ya que la mayor parte esta en blanco.
Abrazos.

Hi Oscar,
An interesting subject and nice light and colors on the barrels, i would just have framed higher to get more barrels and less floor where the light is very strong..

Hola Oscar:

Vaya que foto eh !!!
todo un lujo de vino !!! lol

Luego de leer tantas criticas no creo aportar mucho, pero debo decir que me encanto el juego de sombras que capturaste entre los barriles, le da mucha vida a la foto.


abrazos

Hello Oscar,
I wouldn t mind to have a glass of wine :) (in India, you do get rarely a good quality).
I like the warm light on the barrels where we can see the signatures of known people. For sure, it's a good wine...The only thing is that I would have crop the harsh light in FG.
Cheers,
Marilyn

Well made detail from this wine cellar Oscar. Fun to see the so called celebrities leaving their names on the barrels.
Reminds me a little bit of this visit in the Sandemans cellar in Porto - but without option to sign the barrels hehe.. :

Hello Oscar,
Although I am a bit disturbed by the amount of light of the bottom, I must admit that this picture was taken with that thought in mind and I respect it. I also enjoy the orange hue in between -

Hola Oscar!
Nice shot with a fine exposure for this barrels.
I think there is a little overexposure on the floor, but I know that it's difficult to obtain the right exposure for the overall composition at this conditions.
Sorry for my late response, but I've been out for a few days.
TFS and have a nice weekend.

Hola oscar

Beautiful repetition of the circular shapes of the wine barrels, with excellent tight framing. I like the yellow & violet colour combination. Tfs!

Hi Oscar
this is a nice picture with interesting details on the winery.
The cropping could be maybe better if the white part could be cut.
However it's nice

Hey Oscar,

Mybe you should have left a mark somewhere...interesting still imagery, the richness of the brown oak barrels, the amber tones of lighting, shadows and texture are good!

Cheers!

Hola Oscar
Espectacular o efeito dos raios de luz nos tóneis de vinho e o contraste com o a COR DO CHÃO.
Espero que entendas o português :)
