The colors are lovely and the composition is very nice. I disagree with Bruce about having the product name in focus... but I think the DOF is very shallow here--the closest edge of the glass is in focus, and nothing else. Either a little more DOF, or moving the plane of focus a bit further

Interesting. Nice setup and lighting. Just this morning I pulled out my Spotmatic and it's 55 ƒ1.8, and contemplated shooting a roll this week if it ever stops raining. Haven't unpacked the 50 ƒ1.4 yet. On Mar 28, 2009, at 12:16 , Christian wrote: Just playing around with a 55/1.8 SMC
