Take Two - Darkfield - a photo on Flickriver

            On black. Darkfield lighting technique. Other shot was on grey...

I like the condensation on the glass in this one.

I didn't have to bounce light back onto the lable as much on this one. But I could have used a trick to bring up the color of the wine more by placing a custom cut white card behind the glass and bottle. Maybe next time...

strobist: two sb800's behind black panel and illuminating the side of my lightbox. Fired in commander mode. One problem I have with commander mode is I seem to be locked in at 1/60th second shutter speed and I get a small flash spot on the center of my glass items so I need to block the direct light form my firing flash.
