Leaf and Berry
Even those who work in vineyards every day can't match the stillness of contemplation that a photograph like this provides. For those who are less familiar with what wine looks like before it's liquid, behold the beauty of the little self contained universe that is the berry cluster. Dotted with dew and speckled with the yeasts that will eventually turn these berries into wine, this cluster is a self contained winemaking miracle. Of course, this is a less than perfect cluster, as the burst and dried berries show, but that doesn't matter to the photographer. -- Alder Yarrow
