12 shorts in my lightbox, processed as HDR, filters of this sort, filters of that sort and some opacity changes. I dig it. Kinda has a retro look to it. Though after I was done, I did notice I had sensor dust and tried to edit those out. Need to clean that camera.

Like the shot, lighting and composition are good. I am not sure whether I like the noise in the shot?

That came in via photomatrix. I think I had the "reduce noise" checkbox off. Now the more I look it at (after not having a few drinks) the more I don't dig this version. The background on the originals was black. I might try to re-edit this later today, or just take a new shot with my white background.

Think I need a better lightbox or something to spread out the light more off my strobe more. Don't like the reflection of the lightbox on the glass.

Well, as much as I tried. I just can't get anything I'm doing right now to come close to how the original looked (don't you hate when you forget how you do things).

Digging the HDR look :D

My last time playing with this. Was messing around with masking, since I've never messed with that before. Turned out better then I was expecting.

Isn't there a serious level problem here?

With the Scotch?

Not going down?

Eh, it's not really scotch in the glass. I used some crappy rum I had and watered it down a tad to try to mach colors. :) But I will make up for that tonight and pour a glass and smoke that cigar.
