love the small 'light orbs'? thinking: can't think of what else to call them)
Opppps lol :banghead:.......
Hey Dean, .....
I think you've took a not very interesting subject and made an image that could easily be used as a commercial shot. Bril pp work and composition. Nothing to crit really!
Hi Graham .....a cool, clean, eye catching shot
Now that's very nice, cracking angle and a very effective DoF, liking the PP a lot, a great commercial image, no crit from me either Benny
Hi Graham, agree with everything Billy says above good commercial image, not your best work though
have to agree not the most exciting theme and I think that shows
,...,.which demonstrates your sound grap of PS and the use thereof to help achieve a desired effect. ...,,.... all the subtle techniques you've employed here .............
Graham your "shape" pic is truly excellent.
Don't know what PP trickery may be involved there ... or are they just top quality glasses? (& top quality photography).
Thankyou David, regards PP trickery on the wine glasses... There is none.
Under each of my shots is the image I would have had if I'd taken the jpeg Straight out the camera (SOOC), In developing my shot from the RAW file, I increased contrast and brightness. The only work done "in Photoshop", was just brightening the top area a bit more, dark vignette round the bottom area, and cloning out the tiny hint of the rear glasses from by the top of the stem of the front one.
It's the bounced flash lighting from behind the glasses that does all the work.
Cheers Brian. At least one of the stems is slightly bent. Was a case of splitting the difference to get the top's and n bottoms looking close to right.You do realise those glasses are slightly out of line don't you?
Hi Graham - Numbers I think your lack of excitement shows - its a nice enough image but after all seeing your work all year I think you could do much much better
Craig
This is brilliant graham. I can't pick a fault either, even a small one. Background kept white, perfect placement and POV and a spot on exposure. Well done.
Cheers Richard - havent opened it yet to find out, but it does look good!strong and refreshing by the looks of it. Great image
Thanks Si, boosted the colours a slight amount, and then brought down the greens a fair bit, to help boost the reds and oranges relatively.very strong and vibrant colours. Nice strong subject too.
Strong, nice summer colours, well composed and good detail. Nice water droplets on the apples.
Doesn't really grab me, thought, maybe I've seen too many similar.
Thanks Brian, I was aware of the highlights but went with the natural look. Wet shiny surface in the sunshine is going to be a bit reflective. I'm less bothered by blown highlights than I once was.good idea, but I find the highlights a bit off putting. Apart from that, mouth wateringly appealing.
Hi Graham, nice colour in there, not to sure of the composition myself, i read your comment above about the highlights, I told you a few weeks ago perfection is overrated
Oh I like everything about the Strong shot. Not sure I'd like the drink tho.
Colour and detail, right down to the water droplets on the grass, I like Graham but, after looking at the sooc, I think it would be a different crop for me to include the full bottle and the apples.............it all just seems a little tight
