5 Glasses -- all different sizes and shapes

[Mike Buckley]

Three of these glasses belong to good friends. I've had them so long that I figured I better get around to photographing them so I can return them.

EDIT: Matt felt the vignette in the original was too strong, so I added a second photo that is not as dark in that area. I also corrected a couple issues that Matt found as well as some others relating to an unclean background.


Original Vignette



Revised Vignette

Typically nice photo of yours. Interesting comp, good variety. A few points, to be a tad critical:

The vignette is a bit too strong for me at the top corners, especially the left.
The background is a little dirty, particularly around the top of the second glass from the right

Simply as another version, though not necessarily better, you might try just the 3 glasses on the right (might require a reshoot due to the lighting?)

Good job though!

edit- you may also have a sensor dust bunny, seen at top right in the vignette almost touching the top of the pic. Sorry, I am compulsive

Thanks for the critique, Matt. I'll check the details out tomorrow when my eyes are fresh.

As for the vignette, I could create three strengths that are considerably different and like all of them for different reasons. This one was created without any dodging or burning.

Matt,

Thanks again for pointing out the cleanliness issues. I fixed them as well as some others that you didn't catch (shame on you! ) and replaced the original in the first post. (I think the thingy that was located near the very top of the frame was probably something in or on the background material but I'll check my sensor later this morning to be sure.)

I also added a version with a lighter vignette to the first post for you and others who might prefer it.

Great job on the new edits. I much prefer the revised vignette version. This looks great!
