Day 119 of 365 "If Living with a 27-Year-Old Bottle of Cologne is a Sin....Let Me Be Guilty" You read that right! For some reas
You read that right! For some reason I still possess my first bottle of cologne from college. No, I don't know if it still smells good, but thanks for wondering. Yesterday I saw an image online of a similar ad, and I had to steal.........replicate it myself. The lighting could not have been easier.....though it was not easy. The bottle is laying on a piece of foamcore, and I positioned a snooted speedlight parallel and just above the bottle. The issue was of course how the light hit the bottle at different angles. By raising or lowering the light a few centimeters, the lighting would be drastically different. Once I was happy with the cologne rainbow at the bottom, I went in with 3 different exposures, highlighting (or shadowing) different aspects of the bottle. For example, at a certain angle, the liquid appeared rather swirly and interesting. In another exposure, the name was more appealing than in other exposures. After masking areas of the bottle, I was left with this final composite. Thanks for taking a sniff!
