First time shooting cabinetry. Shot these for the company that built them to use within their marketing and advertising materials. I usually shoot portraiture, so this was new and fun.

none of these are working. "direct linking denied" was the error message

Ok. Found the problem. Thank you Brodog.
Instead I have attached a couple here.

Nice one, Elaine! :)
I'm not sure why, but #1 doesn't do much for me. It doesn't seem to be in the same league as the other three shots.
I think arcing to the right in #3 may have gotten a more interesting angle, but other than that it looks good.
#2 and #4 have to be my favourites; they look very professional! I'd say experimenting with more vertical shooting like #2 is the way forward, but that's just me.
Imagine what you could do with an UWA like the 10-22!
Just my opinion - well done!

I halfway-disagree,
I feel #1 has the potential to be a great advertizement photo, good angle and subject, it's intresting and that's what is important. But it does fall short.
If you slowed down your shutter, flashed the left side of the cabnets, you would have more detail/texture in the woodgrain and would elimanate the blowout to the right of the sink.
Then, take a 2nd shot exposed for outside the windows.

In fact, I feel it is the only photo that draws the eyes to the cabinetry
#2 I'm distracted by the glasses
#3 is too clustery
#4 is next best after #1 but still if you showed my the image and asked "What's the advert?" I'd say no clue.

Thank you Nick and Paul. I appreciate both of your perspectives very much!
