Martini and Margarita glass

[cszakolczai]

The pictures were inspired by my girlfriends sister who said, "I want you to take pictures so I can hang them on the wall" so as a smart man, I said yes and did as I was told. At 20 I am learning the ways of women well, haha. Anyways here ya go...

Number 2 is the neatest, but it could be improved by getting some catch lighting in the droplets which are suspended above the glass. Cool shots. This stuff is always fun to shoot.

Wow! That third shot (Erupting) is beyond cool! If it weren't for the drops along the back lip of the glass it would be commercial quality - perfect for a really cool liquor ad.

This one's not there... Did you move it and forget to fix the link?

Ahh...

Thank you for adding the second one, I like it the most out of the four.

thanks, I am gonna blow these up and turn them into some art, plus I have another image I am currently working on which should be pretty fun to shoot.

The second shot is the most creative of the group. The bottom strobe seems way too hot. Maybe add some diffusion or pull it back.

^ I was going for a pretty hot crazy light flash. Obviously not all the pictures are like this. And thinking about it twice the martini glasses had the power turned down. I am going to do another shoot with a little theme in mind, along with another project I came up with. I just have some safety issues to figure out haha. Going to have some fun!
