[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Some friends and I rode the Napa Valley Wine Train for the Gourmet Lunch yesterday, our holiday treat to celebrate the holidays together this year. While enjoying appetizers before the meal, I turned to glance out the window and noticed these wine glasses perched on the ledge by the people sitting behind me. The sun was shining through the glasses and the wine, and I just had to grab the camera to see if I could catch the shot.

PP: standard RAW adjustments, cloned out some spots on the windows for a cleaner look:), cropped a bit off the left side and top, tweaked colors in lab mode, added border, resized, sharpened, jpegged.

i like the windowpane

Hi Karen,
Althought what seem a nice subject, I find this picture to cluttered. To much object, that take the attention away from the shot.
It would have been a good idea to remove the camera...maybe bring the two glass of wine, more together.Remove what ever object at the left. the window glass is also a bit dirty. I know, hard to have control on that one...but still you've got control on a lot.
Nice try.

I understand what you were trying to capture had I been on your place, would have taken something like this only. I like the POV.

How Italian opera! 'Bellissima cara' straight from Bellini :) You've got an admirerer.
Sounds like a great trip, though I thought you didn't like wine.
Nice, well executed and composed shot.
Buona sera, Janos
