Well, it is colourful and shiny but it's a bit boring. I mean, it is simple but without any added “something”. Nothing happens. It doesn't tell a story.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Larry,

I did not have the opertunity to catch the original that you posted. This one is very colorful and certainly has its share of "shiny" bits.

?? Is it just me, or does the "View Previous Versions" link at the bottom of posts such as these, never seem to perform as advertised??

Best Regards,
Kurt

Kurt,
The first time I tried to use it was with this picture, it didn't work for me. Its to bad because it would allow people to see how suggestions were incorporated into the picture.
Thanks for viewing and comment.

You can just post the original in a subsequent reply (if you want).

I saw the original. Closer crops almost always work better (to isolate the subject) unless there's a specific reason to incorporate negative space into a composition (which can also be very effective if used properly).

One of the many challenges I find with product photography have nothing to do with lighting the subject itself, but the background. With the exception of flatly lit catalogue photography, I always try to incorporate some sort of gradiated background with the subject, either in the form of a spot light, or complimentary color gradiation to either add a mood or some drama.

Cheers

Great idea. I missed the original, but I certainly like this one.

Happy shooting,
