Sparks fly at Tanunda workshop

GT Studios participated in a masterclass in light painting led by Denis Smith, a world renowned expert in this field. A privileged group of photographers were wined and dined at Peter Lehmann Wines Tanunda while Denis entertained us with his stories as well as generously sharing his knowledge and skills.

Denis allowed us to use his suite of light painting tools to create magic.

DInner was served at 4 locations at the winery. Main course was in the barrel hall amongst thousands of oak barrels full of fine wine.

The main course (of 4!) was served in the Barrel Hall. This extraordinary location was also used as the backdrop for more light painting antics.

Credit must be given to the staff at the winery, not just for the amazing food, service and locations, but also for putting up with us plunging them into darkness.

I think we all had a great time, and we are looking forward to getting out to do more light painting soon. Thanks to Denis and his tireless helper Ben for all the advice and encouragement throughout the evening.
