Here is a pic I took using the Metz (off camera) and SB800 (on camera) and then used the Gaussian blur and render/lighting filters in PS.

C&C welcome

(I actually think the printed copy is better than the on-screen version)

Awesome affect I really like it.

Very nice indeed, I'd like to see the same with the cap a little sharper.

Cheers

Can I just say there's a reason why the photo is of a lid and not a lid on a bottle :lol:

I will have a go at a sharper cap.

Patrick I can see the add printed on this now. I like the effect too.

Thanks Glen, my wife used this photo for a card and added text which read "and on the eighth day..." which I though suited it well.

Advertising Material
Well shot

A really effective pic as Jethro has said re advertising - a crop on the left hand side would give it more power for ads

I would prefer it green. Original Pale Ale, subtle flavours of grapefruit, ...etc

Great idea and execution...the colours are great and represent the colour of the brew...top notch...

great shot....... a little crop on the left and you have a portfilo image

Great work Patrick! As already said, advertising/billboard quality!

THanks for the feedback everyone - I can see what you mean about the crop to the left!

Dargan, from my perspective, Pale Ale comes in at number 4 or 5 in the Coopers Stable: Dark, Sparkling, Extra Strong Vintage Ale (very infrequently), Stout (or the Special Old Stout if still made) and then Pale.

But each to their own!
