5 a Day...a bit of fun...

Hi,

Just for a bit of fun, I set up this shot. I used my 75-300 Canon zoom on my 400d. No flash, under the dining room lights. Adjusted WB. Shot from a distance to blur the background which is about 2 foot behing the cans. I had the camera in the other room! 1 sec exposure at 135mm, f4.5 ISO 100.

Question: does it have any merits? How about the PP - the colours are not quite natural, but I like them...do you?

Do you think they are "New, Improved, Original"? So original, they had to improve on them? And don't get me started on "multigrain RICE crispies" (probably just a UK thing!)

too much vignette on the top cans imho. other than that i like it

Thanks. I did wonder about the vignette, and I reduced it quite a lot from the first one I did...

..I like it, though.

Craig, the whole thing is tilted??

No. It seems that"Pride Jumbo Boiled Chickpeas" come in a can that is slightly smaller than the others. The tpo can has a tilt, the others not.
I did some later shots with the Chickpeas on the top to eliminate that, but this was the nicest in terms of colour, white balance and lack of hotspots or dull areas.

It still "looks" tilted regardless.

The Red Kidney beans can lost details though, there is no seperation between it on the left side( my left)

Maybe switch up the cans, blacks being on either side.

Yes, should have left a gap, eh?

Actually, putting the black cans on either side gives it balance, which for me anyways, it is lacking, feels like its going to topple.

A masterclass in keepng it simple, great colours.
