This image is was captured at BIBICh Winery, just a short drive from Krka National Park where we’d spent the morning having our socks knocked off by the beauty of the epic waterfalls and natural tranquility that the park has to offer. We had a few hours to kill before our bus was due to pick us up so we decided to checkout the winery following a huge number of positive reviews on Google.
It absolutely did not disappoint and before we knew it we had a grazing board before us and were strapped into a five wine tasting experience, soundtracked by a collection of live recordings of Norah Jones classics, on repeat. I don’t know how the staff put up with it… It was kind of amazing.
Somewhere between finishing the third wine and before the fourth was served, I decided to have a wander around and stumbled on this view. Compositionally, this had me immediately and there is so much that I love about this image from a photographic point of view.
To start with, this is a view from the inside of the winery looking out and I loved how they only had one of the two doors open. Then there was the pot plant, the angle of the sunlight as it hit the closed door and the gentle mix of soft blues, yellows and greens across the image which further highlights the orange of the terracotta pot. This scene was like a mood board all in one picture and will probably be the landscaping inspiration of my dream house one day.
But possibly my favourite thing about this is image is that whenever I hear Norah Jones playing, I am instantly see this moment in my mind and am taken back to this winery and it's a daydream I’ll happily welcome anytime.
