Great photo by the way.

Just a little but someone please tell me how to post a pic and have it show up on the thread. I guess I drink to much when I'm on here but I can't seem to figure it out.

And yes, that's a fine looking PA.

Why not just put it in your gallery and then insert the link to it.

What Blender says!

That is one TERRIFIC looking pint!!


On a side note, I can't get out of my head something that i read in a another thread about how the word "Fine" in relation to beer does not historically mean good, but clear, as in "fined" and "finings".....but hey, that's my own little problem, and anyway, the other version of that word still applies in spades to this pic!

Sweet picture! I've been trying to hone some sweet beer photography skillz. Results have been marginal.

You know what we need? We need a beer photography sticky! Some good advice on how to best present our beer via camera. Lighting tips, placement.....all that jazz.

We must have an expert or two on the forum.....get to work guys!!! That photo kicks ass!!!

Pretty good!!! You need to get a mod to make it sticky for you!


...........Let me rephrase that.

 

[seabeefrantz]

that is absolutely gorgous.

 

[tspilker]

Ah yes. That picture has a lot of it's glory from the use of HDR. (and some fine PA)

I used to be really into phtography, it was a lot of fun to use this technique so look into it. If you have a tripod and some manual control of your camera you can do outstanding things.

I never thought of doing that with beer to see the results.

HDR Wiki

Not everyone needs a DSLR to be a sweet photographer!

 

[ChshreCat]

Is that an HDR shot?

edit: got beat to it.

 

[Grinder12000]

yes it is HDR - I do a lot of HDR work for interior photography. There is a lot of horrible HDR out there but if done right you can get crowds surrounding you at frame shops. There are SOME problems with HDR - ghosting, halo's noise, software but if you take your time you can do some pretty sweet things.

I hate HDR... its so gimmicky.

What type of interior work do you do? I was into real estate photography out in Las Vegas for about 3 years. (and kind of hated it)

 

[Grinder12000]

LOL - it all depends. 80% of people like it and 20% do not and MOST of the time I agree as people do the tone mapping to the extreme. it's not a gimmick if done correctly.

But the other side is when HDR is used to create realistic photos - it's outstanding for interior photos with bright window problems when you can make the shot look realistic and I'm working on getting more real estate people to look into it.

There are not many good interior photographers. I've been doing B&Bs for advertising.
