What a cool opportunity. Were you restricted to available light? These all seem to have a yellow colour cast which is a tough sell on mostly silver metallic objects. The compositions seem ok, but the Barbaso shots both have a little tilt to them. There seems to be some odd ghosting on the gun shot. The noise is really harsh in number 6. What is the end use for these images because some of the crops are really tight.

I don't know what the end result will be. The client was very mysterious, he came with 2 guys in suits that said nothing the whole time. I assumed it was security. He unloaded the props, one by one, from a metal case. He had me take the pictures, then he packed up the goods back into his truck and left. He said he'd have more items in the future.

Thanks for the comment! Anyone else have any C&C?

IMO, consistantly not enough DOF for that kind of photography.

I like the compositions and I agree with oldmacman about the ghosting or halo around the gun. Also, the flare/glare on the Barbasol can in #4 is distracting. I also feel like the blacks could be blacker in some of the shots, like in #7 and #10. There is noise in quite a few of the shots which may have been unavoidable in the available light but could be better in PP. Have you done any PP on these shots?

#5 would have been better if the bottom wasn't cut off. Cool opportunity.
