I've uploaded my pictures from Roy and Mario's Port Harvest trip. They are here http://www.flickr.com/photos/dspriggs/sets/ and the sets are labeled "Port Trip 2006".

Enjoy!

Taking David's lead, I posted my Portugal pictures at:

Be sure to note the photo I took of the most rare event ever to occur in the Douro...Derek actually SPITTING Port into a spit bucket. :)

Just for the record, photo number 132 in Stewart's collection has quite obviously been airbrushed to give the impression that I am guilty of spitting VP at Qunita do Noval. If you look closely you will see that behind the spit bucket is a bottle of NN63 that I am drinking through a straw

There is something about looking at other people's photos, especially when you were there and recognize each of the people and places. The photos above show the enthusiasm the photographers have in their first time seeing these images. I look at my own photos from this trip and do not recognize the same smiling lens. Not that I am jaded, but it certainly shows when someone new to the region takes an almost identical photo. Very interesting!

And before someone writes to remind me that this was not David's first time ... 8)

Does anyone mind if I copy a few of your pictures into my Flickr account so that my friends and family can see some of the shot that I wasn't able to take (like the lagares).

Just PM me if you need to.

Anyone from the trip is free to take any of mine as well.

Thanks in advance.

You can "steal" what ever pictures you want from my account. I recoomend that you take the original size photo (2048 x 1536) and then upload those to your account. If you'd like even bigger versions, I am happy to send those to you on a disk or email.

Same goes for me. I just about maxed out my monthly upload on Flickr and only got about 25% of my pics uploaded so far. so if anyone wants a copy of all my pictures I can put them on a disk and send them to you.

Hi..

There are rumors around that there are photos of the inestimable Roy
trodding grapes...

Is this true, please ? Where are they ?

It does occur to me that if there were a BigFoot in the Mountains of Portugal.. he would be in high demand :)

Roy quite the face you have on in the picture! Was grape stomping all you had hoped it would be? How many of you guys still have purple feet?

Post by **Andy Velebil** » Mon Oct 16, 2006 7:37 pm

Let me just say stomping grapes is much harder work than it looks. We spent almost an hour in the lagares and although it was a ton of fun, I was glad I didn't have to do it for 3-4 hours like the rest of the workers. But what a once in a lifetime experience. IIRC (as I had a bit of port in me at that point), that was the last night of stomping, so we just barly made it.

If you guys are interested about the pictures of my trip, I did take the time to upload them this morning.

Feel free to ask me for higher resolution one if you'd like them as wallpaper or order enlargement.

Frederick,

This thread is for the pictures from the guests who attended our Port Harvest trip. If you would like to upload your photos elsewhere, please do so in a seperate thread. Thanks.

Roy

Sorry, just though it would be more convenient to put all there. I'll start another thread so it can be in the archive.

Post by **Roy Hersh** » Tue Oct 24, 2006 11:13 pm

Thanks Fred. We are quite close to having the PorTraits photo area become a reality on this site.

Andy,

Thanks for the pics of the trip and video clips. I am taking them to NY to show my family!

Anybody else who wants to share their video clips, please send them to me for inclusion on the new website's area that will provide space for them.

For The Love Of Port
