Lighting Glass

Photographed By Nathan Lanham














This image was shot at f22-1/250


The flash light was behind the glass bottle and i held a Black card up in the frame. the white light was produced by the light that come around the side of the black card. Also the mirror that was on the bottom had a curved lip on the outer boarder and reflected the light. There was a snot of to the Right show up there label.. Note to get the no shadows from the snot it must be flagged form the back ground. or move the back ground out of the light.



















This was shot to have the light as the back ground. To get the back ground a white first take a spot meter reading of the back ground light then expose three stop to make the back ground white. remember that the a light meter is all was metering to a neutral gray. Eg.[ the back ground was f45. Three stops to get the back ground white. you will need expose at f16.]
Note that there is only 5 stop of luminance range in a digital image.


When shooting this image there was a snot on the right of the image, to high light the label. There was four black reflectors used. Two on either side and one on top this and one behind the bottle below the light this is the one that is giving the black lines in the glass.
