Where to find wine photos? Pls contribute

by Luis Lechuga » Mon Nov 03, 2008 8:25 am

Hi,

I am trying to compile a list of good sites with wine pictures. I thought if everyone contributes a good comprehensive list can be built for everyone to enjoy.

I´d like to start sharing the following ones I have visited, and which I like and enjoy:

winepictures.com It contains lots of pictures, from around the world, a huge effort and a great site, though in some cases they show too many people in the wine business.

Spain´s wine photo Atlas. This one is dedicated to Spanish wine, it is the result of a wine photo contest, so not the work on one person. It is very intersting, some more information on where the pictures were taken would be nice.

Wine Pictures - A wine photo image archive from BKWine. Photgraphs on wine, food, travel. France and its many regions are shown here. Lots of nice material, the navigation is not great though

Wines :: Muscat of Alexandria Focus on Chile.

Janetprice A bit of every place

Gallery of wine photographs The photo section contains some interesting pictures, and opens the door to searching at flickr, where there is a wine photo section (the problem I find at flickr is that there is too much material, sometimes great, sometimes not...

I hope this helps someone and you contribute to make this a long list. Thanks!

One should not forget Google/Picasa. Searching the public photos there would yield a treasure trove.

ANother source for good wine photos is Open Wine Consortium.

London-based Cephas is possibly the largest picture library for specialist wine pictures (+some food and travel). Owned by Mick Rock with an extensive number of his own photos taken over the past 20 years, he has assembled quite a large number of other top quality photographers from around the world including, for example, Kevin Judd of Cloudy Bay fame.

Cephas pictures appear regularly in Wine Enthusiast, Decanter and many other magazines and are widely featured in particular in UK-published books such as Jancis Robinson's/Hugh Johnsons's Wine Atlas and JR's Oxford Companion, Oz Clarke's books and many, many others. They are also widely used commercially.

The website has most of the library's pictures on there but obviously in small res and copyrighted as this is a commercial library.

Declaration of Interest: I've known Mick for years and his pictures appear on my website. Mick told me recently that he's putting together a DVD of pictures which should be available early next year.
