Have posted a single shot in the critique section but thought i would share a mini seriesin the general gallery. Not really into still life, so the setting up of the ideal shot was a touch strange to me. Comments welcomed, i'm wanting to learn. #1 - first go at this, not really happy with the overall feel. #2 - next three shot are after taking some advice and reshooting. #3 #4 - not a crop of #3 completly new shot. Thanks for looking folks
Whatever that liquid is in the Warsteiner glass ... probably only water for the set up here and to get a good effect out of it ... it FEELS wrong to me. A good Warsteiner belongs into a Warsteiner glass! Not water! I quite like the second photo here but would personally crop off the bottom, the out-of-focus part of the table. And I understand what you were aiming at in 3, but --- wrong liquid . Though the effect you achieved is nice! And I really like the focus on the shadow/reflection of the glass only in 4.
