Hey guys,

Here are some photos I took this afternoon with an umbrella and a softbox setup at 45 degrees on both the left and right of the objects.

comments and criticism are most welcome :)

I have no clue as to how to avoid them, but the reflections under each item are very distracting.

The lighting on each piece and the exposure and color balance seem to be excellent.
Congratulations!

My guess is the reflections were intentional caused by Lexan.

I personally like the reflections...What are the objects sitting on?

It could me that the darker more clear reflection directly under the object that is throwing me off, but it looks like it was blurred out in PP. Its kind of weirding me out. :)

Maybe move the fill light's angle so that the reflection is more monotone?
