Thanks. No, the flash was on the floor below the table lighting the wall behind. There was enough light from the LEDs inside the bottle to light the label. I did have to lighten the cork in post processing as that was really dark.Did you light from the front as well?
The textures were my back patio slabs, some brown sandstone and lichen on rocksI really like the colour-way and background of the whole image.
It is delicious!Wondering what kelp flavoured gin tastes like?
Totally fantastic image Catherine, beautiful lighting and focus is nice and sharp great job and very well done.
Thank you! It was fun trying something new.That is lovely! Super work.
A piece of white perspex at the edge of the table with a glass and a lensball at the edge. Plain white wall a couple of feet behind the table. Long exposure in a dark room and painted with light behind the glass. I've got a cheap torch which is like a mini light sabre only about 6 inches long and can change between red, blue and green - I put strips of black tape along the torch to make it stripy. Hope that helps?Very nice. No idea how you did that.
Thank you!Love this image, strong and beautiful with bold lighting. Well done

Really effective and imaginative
I REALLY like this shot. Getting the glass, the ball and the base material spotless must have been a challenge!
Really nice image ... well done.
really nicely done. The colours and abstract style really work well and it's lit really well.
Oooooh nice one.
You know Cobra's theme next week is probably going to be 'abstract' knowing him, just to catch you out and make you do it again. I like it a lot, it would decorate a modern home a treat as a wall hanging.
That's very nice Catherine.
Fun image Catherine, I like it a lot. Well done.
That's a really impressive image.
Thank you everyone, I wasn't sure how it would land. Something completely new to me, so many variations to explore with it, so if Cobra does come up with "abstract" - bring it on!Superb! Really nicely executed!
I am! Quite a difference from my usual landscapes!Great abstract image, you are certainly adding to your skills with the challenges.
That's amazing, thanks for explaining how you did it too!
That's a really pleasing image to look at. Nicely done!
Thank you! It was quite an easy one to set up, just had to work out what to do.Great lighting and a a great concept. You must have patience to set this up.
Thank you!Fabulous shot. I love the colours you've chosen too.
Mind reading a specialist at no extra costHow lucky was that? Camera club outing on Saturday, was to Edinburgh - thank you @Cobra !
