Bottle of wine

[exposinglife]

Literally. The bottle was a gift from the wife for Valentine's day. Thought it would make an interesting subject for some lighting work. I borrowed a SB-800 to pair with my SB-600 and took a few shots. The entire gallery is here. Below are a few of my favorites.

Please let me know what you think. I put the SB-800 behind the bottle for a couple and used the SB-600 off camera. Shot entirely with the Beast.

Excellent work, I like the shallow DOF. I think the 2nd is my favorite.

Thanks Wade.

In some of the pics you can clearly see at least one of the flashes. I think you should use a softbox or something to "blur" the reflected flash a little bit

Nice pictures. I also think you should find a way to position the flashes so that their reflections could be avoided or softened.
