Hi Pat, I definitely agree, and I think it's always a good thing to point attention to the work of others. Thanks!
Cheers,
Hugo

You promised a third one of these, with some more details of what it IS. I resolved to comment then, but I guess you are still too busy... That lovely night photo of Hong Kong on the front page reminded me to look again in case I'd missed it. Wow! I've just noticed your Karma score...

I think to go with the idea a bit more, I would have the second pen pushed out even more, and maybe angle the third one just slightly more to the right. Overall a very interesting abstract product shot~

I think you've managed to keep the details so clear even with the use of levels in PS. this is great.

Pure and to the "point." The pen is shouting "look at me." Which is the point. Not to overdo it. Just right. Now I'm hanging on to the edge of my seat for the third...where'd you go!? Antonia

Hi Hugo, I have looked at your first of this series but haven't commenting until seeing this second shot. First I'd like to say that this is a nice opportunity to see and read your approach to presenting and isolating an object. This does not look like the easiest object to render in a photo,what with it's translucent and matte finish qualities, which I think must tend to give an appearance towards softness and lack of deffinition.
In the first shot if that was an obstacle you did a good job despite. It has good detail and depth, and the color looks full. While the shadow I feel adds a lot to that capture, in this picture they do not stand out enough to add impact and to me,it would almost be more desirable if totally eliminated if not as strong as in first. This image, comparing it to the first, has a bit of flatness to it, and I would tend to agree with what was said by James and Antonio, but again this does good job of showing functionality. I will be quite interested to see the third.
Randy

Hey Hugo,
Dit zijn niet echt mijn 'type' fotos, ik vind ze meestal een beetje leeg. Maar deze daarin tegen hebben redelijk wat te bieden. Het scherpte diepte effect is prachtig, en dat het steeds verder 'in elkaar schuift' wordt ook prachtig weer gegeven en ziet er mooi uit. Ook het 'draaiende' effect wat in de foto zit is erg erg mooi! Ik denk dat ik daarom mijn mening over dit soort type foto's moet bijstellen, want ze hebben wel degelijk heel wat te bieden!
Groet,
Lex.

Hugo,
I Like the 'rocket launcher' effect of the three pens in various stages of deployment!
On the technical side I think the rear pen is a little out of focus which is a minor detail but a little distracting.
But I definitely want to buy one of these!
I like the blue version (as on the company site) too.

I moved you to my associates list, I hope you don?t mind, I use Fl for Italian members and AL for members from other countries, don?t worry, a list is only a list, but friends are friends ;) The shot? good as usual, I would have positioned differently the second pen, just to create a geometrical perspective, but these are little and personal details. Bye, Max :)

If I remember well the red color of the previous one I commented was different, may be some strong influence of PS processing

Hi Hugo,
again, a nice DOF composing. great clarity and detail. this time, the diagonal goes a bit more "natural" to the right ;-)
nice development of the pencil. get kind of stripped ;-)
best wishes,

Somehow I like the previous shot, just as a picture, better. This one has another function, and is very good as such.

Very good idea of a product photo, how you have placed the pen and the paper clip together ad how you show how the paper clip shall remove from the pen. That one of the importat aspects of product photography. Beside that, another aspect is to make the product even more interesting then in "real". You have done a very good work here, with the light, the arranging and "explaining" through image.... Excellent!

Really impressive for high contrast between white and red and overall for the composition which follow the diagonal in a 3 D Layer
Superb work as usual Hugo

Not as immediately interesting as the other shot, but it shows how the object works. Good to see the tip of the pen in focus here. :)

A simple and compelling composition Hugo... You show the product very nicely...
The only thing I miss here is emotion... Definetly a lifeless picture... but love it's simplicity...
The high key background give the feeling as if they were suspended... The only thing showing that they are in a table or something is the shadow...
Like it... and a change of your usual work...
Cheers,
MaLuisa

Wow... I?m late.... A week away and you finished a series, completed another and started a new....Sorry, Hugo!
This new is very plesant: simple, clean, elegant.
Just loved the two shots. Hope someday I learn something about artificial lighting..Meanwhile, I?ll keep following the sun...
Cheers!

Tsja, Teunis... Goede vraag.... 't is volledig emotie en sfeerloos...:) Volledig anders dan wat ik zelf het liefst fotografeer, maar 't verdient goed....:) Voor mij is "Mooi en goed" precies waar ik op gehoopt had!
Groeten,

Hi Pat, Thanks for your comment. As usual, it's another triptych. The functionality (and concept) will (hopefully) become more clear with the third image....

Hi Michele, thanks for your comment. I can see why it's not your style of photography, as it's emotionless and purely a representation of the item, without feel or atmosphere. And those two things do characterise your photos. I generally like those kind of photos more too. That's why I appreciate your comment on the technicalities of this shot...:)
Cheers,
Hugo

Very creative Hugo. To be honest I do not like to much such kind of photographs.... i can only say that it seems technically very well done with a great staging and light control.
