My apologies if this is a ridiculous question, but I'm really struggling with it. I'm finally getting the hang of some of the basic operations of Lightroom after only recently having downloaded the program for the first time. My problem is this, though: when I'm done with my work and export the...

My wife and I both race motorcycles (it's how we met), but no kids so we stopped at "Even Better" :cool:

I don't mind at all. Quite the contrary, thank you very much for the advice and for taking the time to give me an exellent edit example. I see what you mean about processing to make the bottle more front and center as the point of attention. I appreciate it very much!! Funny, I came here just...

Hi Nikonpup - yeah, but I have to admit that was intentional. Kinda like a portrait shot, you know? The whole "wide aperture and blur the background with shallow DOF" thing. I guess it didn't work here though, huh? I did send a second picture along with even shallower depth of field, but I...

Hi everybody - Even though I'm very new to DSLR's, I somehow landed a job as product photographer to a California winery. They are shipping me out an example of every bottle they release this year, and I get money plus the bottle for every shot they accept. I just got my first shipment last...

Ok, I posted this just a couple of weeks ago in the "Car" competition. But I'm flogging it here because it's my first, and still only, toy shot. And I like it :) I stuck the cars on the edge of a slow RPM product turntable, with the camera directly across from it on the turntable also so they...

Thank you for those excellent tips, and the gorgeous examples! I appreciate the advice, it's very, very useful info. Here's an example of the kind of detail she needs. This first shot is one of the thimble boxes she sells, and this sort of picture is what gets put in catalogs and product...

I purchased my camera + macro lens primarily to do product photography for my wife. She needs 1:1 shots of very small objects, like single threads in a stitched piece. This presents no problem as long as the object is flat, like a sampler. But some of her pieces are 3 dimensional, and there I...

My little town has a plot of land with three churches on it: the original historic one, the updated larger one, and a third that a different denomination leases. Nice historical cemetery in and around the entire grounds.

This guy was hanging out on an overhead rafter under my deck. Didn't even move when I bumped him with my lens, so I took the opportunity to try a macro or two: .

The rare and elusive Jersey Roof Wife: In 'Rule of Thirds', no less! :)

This morning. My very first attempt at shooting a hummingbird: . Damn, those suckers move fast....

"Do not pass Go!" . OH NO! I edited my post to give it a new title and it took all my likes away! Lol. Rats!

Although I haven't used it in years, I still have the Olympus OM-2S setup I used through college. Not long ago I discovered lens adapters, and got one so I could fit its lenses onto my new Nikon. For the most part, it's worked great. It's good to be shooting with some of my old, familiar glass...
