Living in Japan, and missing real English beer, I can't tell you how much I LOVE THAT SHOT!

Total newbie here...What is "peach gel insert"
Oh, and thats my favorite beer!

I used the Lumiquest fx (http://www.lumiquest.com/products/fx.htm) on my canon 580 EX II flash. It comes with 5 different color gel sheets. Gel sheets are used to alter the color of the light, used a lot in concerts and studio setups.

Bottle looks kind of flat, especially on the black background part.
I think that lighting it from the side would help...

Yeah, I did this while BBQ'ing and only had a single 580 ex flash on hand. A quick fun product shot. Wasn't trying to achieve a wow shot. Just messing around with the new lumiquest fx toy.

Great shot! Now bust out the stripboxes so you can get some nice highlights on the edge of the bottle!

Yeah, I don't have much lighting gear other then the one 580 EX II flash. I've been thinking about getting some though.
