Volk Racing 2005 Limited Center Caps (Product Photography)
Tried out my hand at product photography again... Single 20W CFL bulb on cheapo 8" light dish from Lowe's at camera left- really close to the caps, with white cardboard over top, with glass on my folding stool. Total on lighting: >$10
i knew you'd come back from AZ with something new, but i figured it would be bigger then this.
The background was a piece of glass on top of a folding stool? Looks awesome. I need better backgrounds.
Position the wheels so that the font/lettering is right-side up. 2nd shot doesn't make any sense since you rotated the image to adjust for the lettering being upside down.

Actually, I got the caps sent here. I didn't buy anything for the car this time around, or any time soon as it's such a pain to travel heavy... and I'm broke so I couldn't buy anything.

Should have made clear the first shot was the "product shot." But I do appreciate the criticism, especially from you, whose work I respect greatly.
The 2nd shot I thought was interesting to just turn it up-side down... but the shots of the caps on the car are just snaps to show them on the car. I knew that someone would write to "have the lettering the right side up." LOL. I really don't mind if the words or logo's are the right side up on wheels on car photos though... although I know of quite a few here who's mentioned it.
But yeah, the car shots weren't taken too seriously as the car is filthy.
