Wine Glass

Best regards Shoby!

PDE

This is a beautiful, soft, natural and yet somewhat foreign photograph. Although some might think of it as slightly overexposed, I think you attained a great balance overall. I like how you have thrown some of the content inside the glass to be bright white (but without flares), although my eyes are still affected by the sort of coppery or amberish hue bleeding from the rest of the glass content. What I like the most is the complementing (or affinity) of the hues in the glass with the more desert sand or apricotish hue of the corners of the photograph. What this causes in my view is that the larger pure white areas actually tend to reflect these soft hues from the smaller coloured areas, so in the end it does not actually look pure white (as it is in reality I guess), but the whole scene is softened all throughout. I understand the need for the black bands above and below. My first impression is that they might be a bit to thick, but on the other, the more I see it, the more I think they can't be any thicker or thinner. I am guessing you've experimented with various options. Good stuff. Best regards, Alfredo Chirinos
