Wine, grapes by shesnapped

Wine, grapes

My get pushed partner Michelle @psychegrrrl challenged me to a low key still life this week. Perfect timing because this image has been percolating in my brain all week long.

This is another photo using the light sculpting technique. Not completely sure what I think...
@psychegrrrl It's a try!

Nicely done!!

That's great, it would look good b&w

A wee bit dark for me - would have like a teeny bit more light on the bottle from somewhere! You have chosen your lighting carefully though I can see!

@maggiemae I think I agree, Maggiemae. That bottle is definitely a bit too dark. Thanks for the critique!

@psychegrrrl Hadnt thought about that!

I would like just a tad more light on the bottle but the grapes are beautiful.

@joansmor Thanks Joan! I may give it another try if time allows.

Great low key image, composition

I agree the light on the grapes is lovely, but a bit more needed on the bottle overall, and a bit less just above the label where there's a big line of light

Awesome picture.

I like the concept of the picture a lot; by light sculpting do you mean playing with flashlights and the like? I'm having a blast playing with that technique. (Oh, and we noticed the bottle, misspellings and all!!!)

Really nice job here with the light sculpting

@francoise Haha! I almost tagged you! And yes, light sculpting with the flashlights and pvc parts. Have you posted any of your shots?

@shesnapped the pears one from a couple days ago and the flowers were done with flash lights. pvc pipes! I'll have to read up on that.

Hi Ashley,
I'm your get pushed partner for this week. I've just had a look through your album and you really do have a wonderful collection of many varied photographs.

I'm not sure if you have had a challenge yet on 'Dutch Angle'. If not then do you want to have a go at that?
