            Stoller Vineyards pinot noir.

So, last night I was talkin' with a good friend about how I've been disappointed with my Canon, and how it's just not... 'putting out' if you catch my drift. The images were blurry (even though the AF 'focused' it). Still, even after manually focusing it, I had crap for images... my camera's been sitting on my dresser for a few days. The bag it was sitting in had dust on it, from after it's last use (no, it wasn't there THAT long, I've got a dog - you might know what that's like). After work on a Tuesday afternoon, I meandered out into the vineyard where I was delightfully surprised to see the grapes in all of their magnificient purple! Last time I ventured up that far, I was greeted by green bunches of Pinot Noir. Not quite right, even to the in-experienced wine drinker. 

After pessimistically reviewing the images on the back of the camera, not expecting much of them, I went home to find that they were in fact, of acceptable quality. The only thing that could have made them better in my opinion, would've been some L lens goodness. I don't have near enough money for that, so I'll be saving up for quite a while. 

Anyway, I hope you enjoy. Harvest should be coming in about two weeks! (September 22nd-ish)
