'm experimenting with flash photography for in-store product shots. The idea is that I flash light the product I'm shooting in such a way that the back ground fades to darkness. This way I can shoot at the store without re-arranging things to get a plesant background.

It's hard to do without making harsh over lit shots. Most of the shots that I took today didn't turn out. This picture is one of the few that did.

I've had this bottle of wine for years. It was given to me as a house warming gift for not better reason than "The bottle is shaped like a fish!"

Mark is going through his collectables, figuring out what he wants to keep, and what he wants to ebay. Shot with two remote 580 ex ii'S to camera right and left. There is no back ground. I used the flash to overwhelm the ambiant light.
