Love how the fizz is captured above the glass.

Nice lighting and timing. Maybe the left over plate of food with the said turkey could've helped sell the product more -- people could perhaps relate.

need a spoon.

Looks as though it came from a magazine to me. Good job.

Great colours & lighting - the fade to black helps highlight the white bubbles. The only detractors are the spilt powder in the background, and the fact that the tin is open slightly! :o)

one of the best ones ---one point off for salts on matt.

It's a good photo of fluid in motion, but it looks more like a drink served by the Addams Family than medicine...

different color foreground woudl make this better something that works with your product. shadows don't work well and distract from your picture. I keep looking to see what they are leading to.
05/09/2002 07:58:00 AM
that doesn't look very gentle
05/08/2002 06:59:00 PM
I can hear the fizz! Beautiful color and sharpness. Nice job.
05/08/2002 05:37:00 PM
Nice fizz and good lighting!
05/07/2002 10:52:00 PM
Nice effect, good DOF.
05/07/2002 07:46:00 PM
good 'action' in the fizz
05/07/2002 03:16:00 PM
good job catching the fizz at it's peak, i want to see a spoon or something in the foreground
05/07/2002 06:40:00 AM
Very nice.. I think the surface is a bit messy..
05/07/2002 04:49:00 AM
love the way you caught the fizz in the glass. I would have closed the tin properly and gotten rid of the salt spillage around the glass. It's probably harsh to mention the shadows (seeing as not everyone here [myself included] owns all the equipment necessary for professional set up shots such as this) but the shadow cast by the tumbler is quite distracting
05/07/2002 04:35:00 AM
Very nice photo. I wish the random grains of salt were not present or if desired maybe there could have been a small pile? Photo could use some help in technique to avoid the harsh shadows and blown highlights. Fine effort.
05/06/2002 10:32:00 PM
Nice lighting, although there's a line of shadow right down the front of the tin. The lid is not on properly. There's also little grains of the stuff on the table. I like the mist coming out of the top of the glass.

Conceptually, I don't think this kind of photo suits the product. It gives the impression of something sophisticated and luxurious with such dark, strong colours, when for a medical product you tend to want an overall feel that's lighter and more soothing.
05/06/2002 07:06:00 PM
nice lighting. good photo
05/06/2002 07:00:00 PM
Very good shot, except for the shadow right in the middle of the product you're selling.
05/06/2002 06:56:00 PM
I like how the base fades into the background, not too fond of the shadows, but eliminating them is hard to do. Nice exposure
05/06/2002 04:26:00 PM
I like the effervescence, but the spilled salts distract a little bit.
05/06/2002 03:30:00 PM
Simple concept. Good focus and pleasing background / foreground. The power on the table isn't appealing, though. Still - Well done
05/06/2002 01:59:00 PM
This is a nice shot, I like the way you have captured the bubbles and the "steam" coming out of the glass. NIce crisp focusing.
05/06/2002 10:47:00 AM
Clean shot but the salts on the table are a bit distracting. I love the "stop motion" of the product.
05/06/2002 08:29:00 AM
Pretty good here.
Maybe you could of spilled more salts and moved the can (product) forward to focus on it.
05/06/2002 07:52:00 AM
Good photo, advertises O.K. Dribbled white stuff on the table, messy! Maybe if there was a "spent" turkey husk in the background......Photo 10 Advert 8 total 9
05/06/2002 05:58:00 AM
Excellent.
05/06/2002 05:55:00 AM
Nice lighting in this shot! The only thing I don't like about this photo is that *I* think there is just a bit too much empty space on the top of the frame... just my humble opinion... I'm still giving a good score :)
05/06/2002 04:55:00 AM
Action. Nice.
05/06/2002 04:24:00 AM
Nice timing, catching the fizz.
05/06/2002 03:21:00 AM
nice simple clean image. good job.
05/06/2002 01:19:00 AM
Is this like Alka Seltzer? I like the simplicity of the photo and your choice of lighting. Good job.
05/05/2002 08:17:00 PM
Very well shot!
