How do you shoot this kind if photos author.Could you share with us the technique you use.I saw this kind of photos many times but i can't understand how this is done.I guess you used flash, & a solid background but what about the shadows...?You use an external flash & fire it up from the left...?What was the settings on your camera...?Any help would be useful!Great "freeze" of the liquid.

I don't know what are you shooting with author but you clould work a little bit with the background & lighting.They are not flatering your subject (imho always).You have some "hot spots" & some "nasty" shadows that doesn't add to the photo.Try to light your subject with a "softer" light source (use a sheet in frond of your light source to diffuse it)The background it's ok (a solid colour surface) but the folds aren't good.Try to use a piece of paper or something.Over all it has alot of potentials to become better(imho again).Hope i helped with this tips (as an amature i try many things my self)

The hyperfocal distance is the closest distance at which a lens can be focused while keeping objects at infinity acceptably sharp; that is, the focus distance with the maximum depth of field.You can do this on a table.Take some paper & put some dirt(from your garden)on it.Then place your bike on the dirt & your poster in the background.Then see from your camera how does it looks (the whole set up) & make the corections that you like.At least thats how i would shoot this photo!This is only my opinion author & i hope i helped.I wish you good luck!!!

karaflazz says:

You could be more careful with the foreground & background selection.This is a cross bike(minature)...So this should be placed on dirt to be more realistic.Now...for the sunset you would use the same poster you used in this photo with the difference that you would place it far from the bike(it would be blured in the background & i would look like real).I don't know what are you shooting with but don't place your object THAT close to your camera lens because some spot's (of the bike) are out of focus(OOF).Try to find your camera's focus range.

karaflazz says:

This is a great idea but the background could be better...f.e something "natural" (out on your garden maybe with grass & flowers).This would add a lot to your photo i thing..After all smurfville is in the forest...I thing that you should try it...Its a great photo that needs a little more work (IMHO allways).

"Autumn Leaves" is a much-recorded popular song. Originally a 1945 French song "Les feuilles mortes" (literally "The Dead Leaves" with music by Joseph Kosma and lyrics by poet Jacques Prévert, the American songwriter Johnny Mercer wrote English lyrics in 1947.Here is the version i like the most...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tk6e80XQ8c.Great song,lovely lyrics & just love the music in this.

RayTedwell...those (the sand) are the pills content i guess.Creative idea author but you should use a little more "sand" (the palm tree's size is very big comparing to the size of the island,IMHO allways).Very nice tho & great colours here.What are you shooting with if i may ask...?

If only the black line was in the left lower corner of the frame...that would be perfect!I like the BOH sky in the top right corner of the frame...it looks like a tunel/doorway to heaven.Great repetitive patterns & the black leading line looks like a rope,like some thing i can hold on to...HOPE!!!Top marks author!
