#2 for me even with a slightly sloping horizon

No problem Rajhans, under those circumstances they are very well shot

I like these a lot, but in the first image you've chopped off the very bottom of the leaves and #3 is very very close to the top of the frame.

Sorry to be picky, but its these sort of things that can be easily avoided

Steve, if you've not already found something, HG mould spray works very well, available from most builders merchants and available online

Thank you for all the comments, It wasn't as difficult as it may seem,

The BG is a softbox on a studio head, with a piece of black card directly in front, all i did was make sure the softbox was in line with the edge of the worktop, the card was then straight and level with the softbox and a rule was used to get the glass stems in line, the camera on a tripod was then centered on the stems.

If you look closely at the third glass base from the front, the base isn't as good a shape as the rest !!

All that was needed in post was a slight tweak of the midrange levels towards black to strengthen the black lines on the edges of the glasses.

Afternoon Kris

I don't do any social media at all, so I'm probably unsociable

I do however share stuff via my website ( Zenfolio ) via links etc and it also has a back office whereby I can password protect access to clint images which they can then share / download.

Costs are £120 pa and for me its a great way to refer potential clients during the discussion process and a safe way for them to view the images.

£40 - £45 according to Google, if it is boxed, in perfect condition and never used perhaps a little more to a collector, although its unlikely the battery will accept a charge if its been depleted for a long time
