A display of vintage cognacs. Finished cognac is almost always a blend from different vintages or, in some cases, different vineyards.
Back then, I was taking color slides with a Pentax camera, my first-ever SLR. I've since scanned and digitized many of those old slides and posted them on this blog over the years. I posted a smaller version of this image in 2007 (eleven years ago!), but here it is again a little larger.
Which Pentax?... [he asks... being a nosey Pentaxian!!]
ReplyDeleteAnd all that brandy... good job I'm not that much of a fan.... but it would enrobe a good few cherries!!
ReplyDeleteAh... Golden. A delicious looking image.
ReplyDeleteOh, I really enjoyed my one trip to the Dordogne. No visits to cognac factories, though.
ReplyDeleteAny recommendations for scanning old slides?
ReplyDeleteThanks
In my youth we'd finish meals with a little cognac. Now I seldom drink and don't know if people are still drinking cognac as often.
ReplyDeletetim, I don't remember... it's been a long time and I don't have it anymore.
ReplyDeletemitch, and tasty, too!
judy, you'll have to come back! ;)
bill, I have a Canonscan 4400F multi-purpose scanner. It scans 4 slides at a time, then I processed the images in Photoshop. But I did this years ago now. There may be better technology out there these days.
evelyn, we have it around the holidays, mostly. But other occasions do crop up!
I don't think I have every had cognac - can this be so? I should try some.
