Day 71 – Paradise Ridge Winery, Sonoma

Today’s sunset at Paradise Ridge Winery, Sonoma, CA.  After 2 sunsets at Lake Tahoe, I decided to photograph the wine country today.  I was super lucky that the winery was hosting a big fund raising dinner event this evening and thought I was one of the guests after its office hour.

This image was taken at 6:34pm, 4 minutes after sunset, facing southwest.  ISO100, 24mm, f/22, 8 sec.  I want to capture the vine line.  Also I waited till after sunset to avoid flare.

This one was taken at 6:41pm, 11 minutes after sunset, facing more toward west.  ISO100, 52mm, f/22, 15 sec.  I want to have more even sky colors – facing west is the best way to achieve that.
