MashBill Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 Clogsdon's recent photos of Four Roses got me to thinking. Maybe we should share some of our wallpaper quality photos of our distillery trips. So I'll start this off with one of my favorites (architecturally anyway....). No. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesbassdad Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 Jeff,I'm amazed at the depth of field that you achieved in what I presume was dim light. How'd you do that? (I would have expected the near rim of the vat to be blurred.)Yours truly,Dave Morefield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boone Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 I know that this is not a picture of a distillery...but when ya think of bourbon and some of Kentucky's finest...this man is on the top of the list... For those of you who do not know him...This is Booker Noe...at his home...sittin on the front porch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbutler Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Vertical shot. Does anyone recognize this place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Dave, That picture was taken with a fugi finepix 3800 3.2mp camera. I did nothing but point and shoot. This was my first real test for this camera and I am quite pleased. I bought it mainly for the 6x optical zoom lens, but the close-up quality is excellent as well. Up to now I have been taking digital pictures with the onboard camera on my miniDV camcorder. It has an effective resolution of about 1/2 of a megapixel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesbassdad Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Jeff,Thanks for trying to enlighten me.Sadly, I'm so out of date that I assumed the Nikon F1 is still king.Now that I've thought about your photo in light of what little I know about digital photography, I'm left to wonder how the sensor speed (to coin a term) of today's digital cameras compares with the range of ASA speed ratings available in the film domain.Perhaps today's digital cameras function at a level equal to an ASA rating of several thousand, thereby allowing extremely small lens apertures and (now to the point) extreme depth of field, i.e., sharp focus from near distances to far in the same photo. That's the characteristic of your photo that I found striking.Yours truly,Dave Morefield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradox Posted July 15, 2003 Share Posted July 15, 2003 I'll take a complete stab in the dark and say it'd from Buffalo Trace because of those brick walls? I think I remember Buffalo Trace having alot of buildings that were brick like that. Unless most are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boone Posted July 15, 2003 Share Posted July 15, 2003 Jim, I was gonna guess and say Barton's ...
