Default Ty Nant exposure

Photographers Comments
Three Ty Nant water bottles - well actually, just one, used for this composite. Any comments, especially about the arrangement of the bottles? It is not too late, I can easily change them.

Is this for a client..? If so i should imagine at least one bottle should have most if not all of the label showing..not sure of the font re white text..sort of leads me away from the main subject. colour looks good and i like the contrast between the blue and black

No, not for a client. I just like messing about with images like this. But Ty Nant do have an annual competition, which attracts some pretty freaky shots like this. The bottles are such a wonderful blue. Ty-Nant Gallery

Wow amazing images there..
1999 love the winning shot
2000 prefer the 2nd place
the runner up in 1999, the thumbnail crop is also much better than the full shot i feel
if this is what you are up against then i see what you are trying to do..still life def aint my strong point but the contrast you have really makes it stand out
you could try bringing the LHS bottle much closer? great job anyway

My fav is 2nd 2002.

Anyway back to your image i would try it without any labels???

When i glanced at the thumbnail i thought it was 3 gas flames so perhaps have a play along that sort of vein.....
