Light Flare at the Bar
by anrb    

Ever since I saw the “Light Fare at the Bar” post from Strobist website, I wanted to try this. So I mailed my mentor Marv Heston and asked him if he will be interested in trying this. He was immediately ready for some experimentation and we set out to reproduce a similar effect. I should tell you how much fun we had doing this. It was like working on a high school project with so many tiny little things to worry about and we finally came out with some great pictures. Special thanks to Marv. This is actually a test shoot before the shoot with an expensive bottle in a couple of weeks. Stay tuned for the steps to create these pictures with setup shot and more.

Meanwhile please leave your comments and thoughts about the pictures.
