Hi Els,

This one needs to go straight to the head quarters of Dolce & Gabbana! It's terrific!
I like the light shining through the bottle of perfume, so detailed. Also, one cannot really tell what is in the background, so it leaves much to the imagination.

I prefer this one to the one in the workshop.

Great shot! Lisa

Hello Els,they will be appointing you as a publicist for the firm,this is such a good job.
I like the contrasts between the soft fluffy feathers and the hard cool glass.The red adds just enough extra colour imo.
The sharpness and lighting are wonderful.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hoi die Els,
Nou, dit zou als professioneel werk door kunnen gaan. Kan zo een reclame folder in, écht.
Dat ga ik ook eens doen, zo'n mooi flesje 'pakken' met de sfeer er bij.
Klasse apparaatje die Sony. Mooie heldere plaat, mooi scherp, en prachtige kleuren.
groeten,
Joop!

Wonderfully done Els. Set up is so simple and your results so elegant. I tried to envision without the red feather and I think I do prefer it with. It just adds that bit of contrast that seems to make this composition work so well. Watch the marketing company doesn’t steal your idea away.
Excellent work.
Warmest Regards
Wanda

Do I smell here something new ?
Thats what Ad, should ask you, not your sister, Elly.!
Excellent play with the Sony.! And of course with PhotoFiltre, you really are a specialist with that.
Perfumed result, Elly.
Vies warm hier, 29 graden, de bui kan elk moment losbarsten.
Zit te wachten op een 'skypie' uit Doha. Daar is het boven de 40 C, en zandstormen. Dus niet klagen.

Els, I really like the set-up picture you put in the ws section. Now I understand how you got that reflection there.
I miss some info about what light/lamps you used, and where you put them, though...
Anyway, I like this post, it's a good product shot. But imo you're right about the red feather, I find that a wee bit distracting and, especially in product photography, all attention must go to the product you need to sell.
TFS

Els, je bent een van de veelzijdigste fotografen op deze site... bij deze: bedankt voor alle frisse invalspunten die je me bezorgt ☺^☺.

Hi Els,

Excellent presentation of your perfume. Top quality image indeed.

I saw you in your WS about the grandma waiting for their grandchildren. That is absolutely the meaning of my picture other can't understand. The caring of all grandmas to their little darlings. I love your picture Els, thank you very much.

Hallo Els
Ben je nu ook al met reclame bezig.
Deze wel opsturen naar Dolce.
Mooi comp en kleur.
Ik heb eens gedaan met een fles champagne. Kreeg ik voor de moeite mooi 2 flessen toegezonden.

Hello Els,

Well, this speaks glamour to me!
The feather boa, plus the the 'red' feather set the tone and then the perfume ... well! Were you trying to entice someone!!!

The shot is lovely.
The light is perfect bringing out the shine on the metal and the glass. The smooth, hard glass contrasts very well with the soft fluffiness of the feathers. The restricyed colours do suggest oppulence!

You could have done this as an ad. for the perfume! All the right suggestions are there!
(I think I've told you before that you would be a wowo at designing ads.)

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Many thanks for your kind comments on 'Rambling Rose'

Hi Els:
This one really sets my imagination flying, " The Scent of a Woman " I won't say any more about that lol . The light and arrangement of the subject matter is perfect and the colours are super creating a very sexy mood from a simple photo, but thats what its all about..... you have sold me a bottle of perfume .. excellent work Els ... thanks for the smile....Roman:0)

Hello Els,

Well done on the details, a fine attempt on commercial photography!
But since it already is very good I'll be picky this time: Dolce & Gabbana will NEVER allow anything to disturb the logo however insignificant...
I'm talking about the feathers (?) of course!
Well done on lighting and the colours are nicely reproduced...

Greetings,

Een moeilijke voor me.
Het flesje zelf vind ik prachtig belicht.
Misschien de stop aan de linker zijde iets oplichten.
De idee met de pluimpjes is goed gevonden, maar
voor mij iets te overdadig.
Rechts onder die mocht van mij weg.
( of toch niet zo uitdrukkelijk )
Hangt ook voor tekst.
Links onder, misschien raar, die zou 'k liever wit zien
en dan de grote links, die dan eens rood proberen.

Ach ... toch bedankt : altijd leuk om eens een foto tegen te komen waar je linker- en je rechterhersenhelft het oneens zijn. :-)

Groetjes
Jan
