Product table pictures...

I have spent most of the day running for supplies and modifying my table I built. I am not done yet but I am at a stopping point till I can go out of town to buy a long piece of white fabric to build a tent over the top and sides of the table. I also need some more clamps and they are 3 times cheaper out of town. Maybe another shop light or two.
What I did today was add two power strips, all the wood blocks to clamp lights and clamps to hold the fabric and extend it out on both sides so I could cover it with material. I like this table because I can modify it how I see fit when I want to. Pretty soon it will fill the whole room! <IMG SRC="/forums/images/wink.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=";)">
I want to mount the 4 bulb photo light above me directly facing the objects on the table. The way it is now it is in my way and still angled enough to cast bad shadows.
I set the camera back on program to take the pictures with the flash of the table. When I took the quick pictures of the bottle I only set the white balance with a white envelope. I am sure I can get better pictures than these. I just took a few quick to post with the stand pics. When I get all my stuff on the stand how I want it will make a big difference.
BTW, I am leaving the crud in the bottle because if I clean it out people will think it is a reproduction. <IMG SRC="/forums/images/smile.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=":)">

The next pic is with the big light on and no flash and the one after that is with the big light off with out a flash. I don't know how many watts those bulbs are but they are bright!

I have read some more on still life photography. I guess I have to learn somehow? <IMG SRC="/forums/images/smile.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=":)">
 
Couldn't resist... Keep us informed Ric... Good luck.. Guvner..
 
Completely reworked my table. Made it quite a bit smaller also. Still not set up like I want it yet but I tried it out anyway. Not good pictures but getting better. Still have stuff coming for my table. Won two 30" photoflex umbrellas on ebay for $15.50 and I am getting ready to order some plexi-glass for the table top.
Second picture isn't even in focus but you get the point. Slowly but surely coming together I think. Still a long ways to go though.
