1.7.1 Message in a Bottle

We have been given an assignment to take 3 photos of the same bottle. Each photo must concentrate on 3 different qualities - light, colour and point of view. The 3 shots should take no longer than 20 minutes.

It took me ages to realise I had lots of bottles in my make up drawer, I was struggling to think which other bottles I had besides the baby variety!

Here are my attempts:

Light

Colour

Point of View


I decided to take the 'light' shot outside, as the lovely sunny weather meant maximum potential for being well-lit. The 'colour' shot I found quite hard as I was working with a colourless liquid. I played with putting brightly coloured patterns under or behind it to get them reflecting through the glass but in the end I decided this was the most effective. The strangely shaped bottle allowed me to get an abstract 'point of view' shot.
