I have a pair of yongnuo 560 IIIs.What lights were you using?
Love the photo BTW.
True color of the shoes is a little darker than the second photo, but not nearly as dark as the first.Much better with the hints of shadows. With the higher exposure overall, you lost some saturation. Which version is truer to the shoes themselves? Nice work!

Took your suggestions and did a reshoot (Still had everything set up so it was easy). Thoughts now?

I spent a week on the canals with my family when I was in high school. This shot brought back memories. The canals are not that hard to operate, but I recommend having a couple of people (could do it with two, three would be MUCH easier). At least that is what I remember, but it has been about fifteen years.

Shoot through umbrellas. I later realized that one of my flashes was set to 105 zoom (all the way in), and that was probably what was causing the problems However, by that time, the cut crystal was already set up in the scene. Like I said, I am not done with that shot just yet.

I tried a snifter to start with. Problem was that the smooth glass I was having a devil of a time with the hotspot from the flash. Bailed on it. Will probably go back once I get a little more experience with the speedlights.

Now I understand. Good point. ThanksI meant the foil edge at the cork. The glass is beautifully lit and very inviting, exactly as it should be.

PS. May have to have another glass of brandy tomorrow night.

By jagged edge, I assume you are meaning in the glass. There is no foil. The bottom is the reflection off the hardwood table and the background is a white foam board. The jagged edge is coming from the light playing through the cut crystal.
Yes, the shot still needs work. Thinking I am going to abandon this project and find something easier to start with. It was still a worthwhile exercise. Besides, it gave me a really good excuse to enjoy a glass of brandy afterwards.

So I had a second speedlight arrive today, so I was working on balancing the two. Got some compositional help from my darling bride. Please let me know what you think, and how to improve this shot. Thanks

OK! Sorry been a busy week so I have not really gotten to follow this thread. All I can say is WOW!!! This group took a photo that I probably would have trashed and came up with several versions that I would love to get copies of.
Jerry_ and I were on the same wave length with his panorama shot. See below.
Winner for the week has to be Nicole and the Godzilla shot. I love that one. Any change you would be willing to let me have a copy?
