srika, I like the selective color idea.

however I think the strong contrast with the hand and the bottle keeps drawing my eye there and away from the stream of tequila into the shot glasses where I want to be looking. wonder how it would look if the bottle was b&w too...

I thought the same thing but didn't know how to put it into words. The hand/bottle just looks...weird.

the thought did cross my mind as well - but ultimately I felt that if I was going to have color on the drink in the shot glasses, the color needed to be present in the bottle too. now I could have done the label part in b&w, that might have helped.

yeah maybe just the tequila colored and the rest b&w...it probably won't be the easiest mask, but now that you've got your mouse back

let's keep in mind we are not shooting for Pulitzer prizes in here, this is more of a casual thread for sharing shots that have interested us. I'm not saying don't critique things, I'm just saying it's kind of understood that we are not posting our BEST work in here. We may even post totally pointless shots in here and that is OK. If it's a shot we are proud of and like to think it's among our best, that goes in the "Favorite photos" thread. Obviously none of this is written in stone.

Failed attempt at strobing+rigging. Oh well, hopefully, results will be better with more messing around :p

I hear ya on #2. The filter gives some interesting effects. I may work on #3 again. I layered the car and brightened it up. Kept the background dim intentionally, but may need a second look......
