Artist's Comments

Well here is something I did a while a go. This is the top of a Lorina Lemonade bottle. :drool:

So for the people that look at this - Would you classify this as Macro or Still Life???

Oh pretty lighting =]

about the classification I would say both but since DA can't do that I think it's in the right spot as it is.

It is good to have an end to journey towards,
but it is the journey that matters in the end.

Thanks - I used two lights above left/right.

I never know what to classify these shots that are between 1/2 life size and life-size.

The stuff with a 1:1 ratio always go in Macro but these in between sizes I can never decide since some Macro people are such ratio snobs. If it isn't 1:1 or greater it isn't macro

Very pleasing, what types of light do you use?
I've been looking for a studio set.

yes same here.
The truth is that 1:2 is already macro, some earlier macro lenses are only 1:2 for example.
Now a day it means that a normal print 6×4 inch (15×10 cm) is larger then lifesize. 1:8 is enough for APS-C sensor I believe.

I am using two desk lamps with daylight corrected compact florescent bulbs. I think they are 30 watt.
