I set this lighting rig up the other day to take snaps of some glass bottles for the shop.

I thought they turned out quite well.

Great shots Al. I have always had trouble trying to shoot glass. Too many reflections and the lettering is  hard to see. Are you going to share your secret  with us?

Cheers.
