Candle + Wine + Bulb

[dcp]

Playing around with a candle, gas from a lighter, and bulb exposures when I got the idea to place a semi-filled wine bottle in front of the candle and see how the shots would turn out. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

That's the img...as I see it...by copying the properties of the file, plugging it in a browser, and then adding the ... tag to it.

The OP needs to take the "?imgmax=640 (http://lh3.google.com/image/absorbsion/RW0kOsInABI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Hwje5YFV-lA/AdamWhipple.jpg?imgmax=640)" out of the tag... then it will work for everyone.

Source should read;
http://lh3.google.com/image/absorbsion/RW0kOsInABI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Hwje5YFV-lA/AdamWhipple.jpg

Not;
http://lh3.google.com/image/absorbsion/RW0kOsInABI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Hwje5YFV-lA/AdamWhipple.jpg?imgmax=640 (http://lh3.google.com/image/absorbsion/RW0kOsInABI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Hwje5YFV-lA/AdamWhipple.jpg?imgmax=640)


As for the Image itself... It doesn't do much for me. Too Grainy, Too Dense, Too Warm. Too OOF... Sorry

In fact, that looks very similar to one that I did, a long while ago, called 'Sweet Dreams' :
It was taken with a 20D and 50mm Macro. Ah...reminiscence...

I reuploaded the image, I was trying to post quickly before class but it should be fine now. The image lost some quality when resizing but I don't see how the image is too grainy or OOF. The texture or of the paper and maybe reflections from the bottle are just due to the nature of the material.

Whatever you did, or possibly it was my monitor at work, the image looks much, much better.

Thanks, I'm hoping to get some time this weekend to play with multiple bottles and candles.
