Perhaps a day late to call this a supermoon as i took this last night. It is a composite as the moon required 6 stops less light than the rest of the scene. k1 + DFA 150-450

Weather isn't the best outside at the moment, so I've decided to try product photography with a simple 2 flash setup

Wonderful shot ! Seen on Facebook !


I really love that last one ! As you said, the wood texture and lines are terrific !
I remember some idiots saying to never center a flower shot, I love centred flowers !
But in your case, those superb blue mountains are pushing the flag to the right, so it is less centred

For @BruceBanner and other interested...

Here is the combo of the beer bottle shoot :
2 Walimex Pro VC-400 with softbox,
1 Walimex Pro VC-400 with beauty dish (not mandatory) and
1 Metz 52 AF-1 with a self build snoot.

Front view

Back view

with flashes

Result


Voilà !
Thanks muchly! That's really helpful, I might try something more amateurish than that later on this evening when it gets a bit darker in my house. Timely as well as I was researching yesterday how to make a home made snoot, does yours have the grid/honeycomb stuff too or just black felt to direct the flash?

Eric, both of those shots with the flag are good, just different. I favor the second because of what you said, the wood texture & lines offer a very nice contrast to the mountain background. And I am a fan of all flags from all countries so I like.
Frederic, awesome setup & great information.
Kerrowdown,Very interesting, when I looked at that photo of the woman in the snow I thought a cold stare saying "how dare you take my picture" but your comment caused me also to go back & view her, and I agree...hypnotic. I would like to see a close up of her.
Rondec, very nice barn shot.
pschlute, awesome moon shot and terrific composite work.
acoufap, that total white Intimate is very different & pretty.
Botanizer, your Dimpled Troutlily photo is superb shot of a very small flower. In about 3 months I will have some around to photo.
Best Regards, Bob

Hi Timur,
I didn't know the Zenit 212K. The Leica R8/R9 looks like very much to it in terms of design...

It's a home made snoot with a piece of the background paper, so no grid
I'm eager to see your shot !

Thank you Bob !

Sometimes when you are taking a photograph, it pays to turn around to see if there is anything else of interest to photograph.
