Coopers ...

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Great photo! Love the saturated colours. I've been experimenting with a cheap light tent to get something like this - it's harder than I thought to get it *just* right. btw.. could not help but notice you have Scott Kelby as one of your Flickr contacts!

Thanks guys for comments!

@Poompy ... The setup was a sheet of A$ white paper and the desk lamp pointing on the caps from the angle. Some adjustment done in pp.

@Vodka ... Yeah I have been watching Photoshop TV and then I came across Scott's profile, but I do not thin k he is using it a lot recently.

@Thommo ... That is my favorite Australian beer!

You missed out on the most important - Sparkling Ale Red! That would've given you a nice traffic light set of colours to work with :)

As a Coopers fan(atic), I can say that I definitely like the shot :D
So join in the chorus, and sing it one and all!

You are 100% right! I think it is a good excuse to go and get them all now!

I did get Aussie colours instead ;-)

That is a great image! Love the minialistic detail.

As a south aussie, it's guaranteed that I would like Coopers :p but I hav found that there is the Little Creatures Pale Ale made in Freo, that might just be a tad better than Coopers, god forbid. :D
