Terrific image, Randy, love the comp, tones and lighting! #8738229Marty Straub July 06, 2010
Cool pov, Randy. I can tell from the bowing of the bottom shelf that these barrels are not standing on the floor but rather stored on shelves, which means that YOU must have been on the floor to take this wonderful photo. Does that mean you were already through the sample line? Seriously, great job. Whatever the condition of the photographer, the photo is excellent. #8738290Randy D. Dinkins July 06, 2010
Thanks all for your comments. It was pretty dark in here, so shot using 1600 ISO. Marty is correct, these guys are stacked and the first shelf here is over my head (so I was not on the ground :-), and this was before our taste test. And, yes, if one drinks too much of this stuff, you will be going in circles :-). #8738981Patrick Rouzes July 07, 2010
Superb tones, detail, clarity, lighting & pov here, Randy! Easy to see you shot this before the taste test.lol! Outstanding work indeed! #8740572Michael Umbreit July 07, 2010
