Location: Winchester UK
Date: Sep 5, 2008
Aperture: f3.5
ISO: 800
Shutter: 1/3

Date Uploaded: Sep 6, 2008

 After the raging discussion about ad shots and product shots I have no idea how this will do. Flotaing around a 5 maybe...? It's not the most serious entry in the world anyway.

Thankyou to my wonderful girlfriend Laura for standing in the road as, even though it was a dead end, lots of cars seemed to like turning down there!

Was taken handheld in light rain with no flash from camera, Laura fired a flash gun from opposite side in order to illuminate the edges of the sillouhette better.

unusual concept and shot, but that makes it all the more intereting considering the product. Great sense of mystery, I want to go there! 9

Very interesting shot. It's well taken, and the content is intriguing. I'm just not sure whether I feel it qualifies as a product shot, so I have to mark it as DNMC. Though I still like the shot a lot.

This is really cool and arty but the DPC crowd wants stock photos with a softbox. ugh

in no way a catalog shot. not even sure this would make for a good ad.
