Hi Pall - a couple of well intentioned points: The DOF in your pic is far too shallow for a product shot. You should be using around f/8 and up to get the DOF. Being digital take a few shots with the flash in different positions because you do have a hot spot in the shot.


:wink:

Not so sure he was going for a "product" shot with this one Chris! Looks more like a "study of a tea bag" to me!

Can't see anything wrong with the image as such but for some reason it makes me feel uncomfortable! Kind of an "ick" feeling!! =P
