Whisky

[John27]

Hi guys, After seeing Guesty's very nice whisky image, it reminded me I had done a whisky shot for my "glass" subject hand in for college last year.

So here it is, and as I always say, all comments and CC's are very welcome.

Canon 5d MK II, EF24-205mm f4, shot @ f18, ISO200, 1/125th. Two soft boxes were used.

Very nice. Pity the bottle is still full!

It isn't now Nathaniel, my father in law and I had a couple while he was over on holiday, and can I just say it is a very tasty whisky.

Cheers

Re: Whisky

Cheers John. You've lit the scene beautifully. I think we should keep this thread going. More photos of my"the water of life"...

By the way John, i really enjoyed my bottle of superstition from Christmas last year. Unfortunately i didn't own a camera back then!

Thanks for the comments Guesty, and for me drinking it was much more pleasurable than taking pictures of it

Re: Whisky

Excellent Exposure. IMO, the composition would have been much stronger if the bottle would have been partially emptied.

Thanks Tom, if I had been in the house I would have done that, but I took this shot at college. But you are right, it would have been better with some whisky out of the bottle.

Re: Whisky

Partially emptied??? Oh dear!! I would have shown an empty bottle tilted on the side, with the glass perhaps half full.

Re: Whisky

Gosh, this is good, the 2 light sources give a nice modelling effect, and feeling of depth.

Thanks Jim, I too like whisky, and glad that I did the whisky justice in the image.

There is a "glass half full, glass half empty" joke their somewhere Nathaniel !
Think I'll go and pour a dram, or two and have a think about it !!

Re: Whisky

Lovely shot - as is the whisky
Well lit

Incidentally, the background is the same Tartan as my kilt - Blue Ramsay

Thanks Mike, and I chose the tartan as I thought it was a nice contrast to the colour of the whisky.
