I love the warm orange tones and the shapes in the last shot--excellent!
thanks, derrel.....i originally staged the glass on white posterboard, but i didn't like all the cool highlights.....so i staged again on pink construction paper and propped up more pink on left and right to "warm" up those highlights...thanks for noticing!
Yeah, the warmth of the background is subtle, but it permeates the entire shot. The shot really kicks a$$, in my 1980's-speak vocabulary...it's trying the extra step, trying to make it better, that made this shot so "warm", and so good.There's just a nice, unifying warmth across all the glass types in the shot, and that's why I think it's so appealing. This is a great example of the photographer's own efforts really making a major difference in the quality and aesthetic appeal of the final result.
