Set up shots usually don't do a lot for me and I do my best to judge them technically. This one goes beyond technical appeal and really is an eye grabber. The shaded background and subtle lighting makes this a beautiful shot. What did you use for lighting in this, if I might ask?

    Thank you very much for the lovely review. I told in the notes what I used for lighting, but I can of course repeat it. This was sitting in a dark room. A bit of light came through a door, and then I just used an ordinary flash light.

Beautifully photographed, and glass with patterns can be tricky with lighting. However you have got it right, the focus is also very good. The background works in very well with the image giving it a richness, and not just having a glass beside the bottle but to have some ice in it, that clearly shows some condensation. This is simply a great photo on many levels, well done.

Great photo! It is difficult to take shots in the dark and you did a fantastic job! I have been thinking about photographing my scotch for a while now but couldn't figure out how to do the background. This gives me some inspiration! Looks fantastic and i wish i was there to have a sip!

May I say this is as good a shot as I have seen all day. You have really captured the sparkle of the crystal in that decanter, and the Scotch within is just begging to be released to allow the aroma to fill your nostrils, before sipping the gently warming from one of the Scottish rivers it came from. We may have to pay a pretty penny for it now, but when you see it in the glass it is all worth while. What gets me is that you were able to focus on it, I would have been feet in the air, and who cares, lol. Great shot. Roy :0)

Ok I just have to do this. Your picture is crystal clear. There I've said it. I really do think that you have done a great job with this picture. The focus is very good with a lot of the details that make this an exceptional shot.

Very nicely composed photograph and the detail on the decanter and glass came out very well. You achieved excellent lighting and great focus.

I just looked through the contest entries in order to vote and this is the best in my opinion. The photo is exceptional and deserves six stars but I have none left to hand out. I love the beautiful decanter and the crystal cut glass. The whole picture is a really outstanding still life photo. I hope you win.
