(Apologies for deleting my first version of this; I saw a problem after upload.)
I wanted to try some glass photography again, aiming for a dramatic "portrait" feeling for this small (barely 5" tall) green glass vase. I assembled a dark enclosure to eliminate all unwanted reflections and came up with a one lamp, light-from-the-left setup. Then I shot underexposed, exaggerating the overall dark look.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
