My eye goes to the hot spot even before the writing on the bottle....DRU #6163038M.Christine Duncan July 10, 2008
Hmmm, I would attempt to correct the hot spot later if I thought it would still distract too much... but this is still a great photo Arman. And it's got a bit of an edgy feel to it, in which case the glare in that one area could add to it's charm actually! I rather like the overall intensity... wtg! #6163638Arman E. Barbuco July 10, 2008

Nice Arman... agree with the hotspot but the bottle is perfect...Laura E. Swan July 11, 2008
I thought that was a light from heaven? Why is it called a HOT SPOT??? As in burn??? I love the colors in this one Arman and for your first shot at it you did well! -Laura #6168460Arman E. Barbuco July 12, 2008
Sherrybear - thanks. I will improve it next time so they would see the bottle first and not the hotspot. It was my first few shot.Laura - I guess they are calling it hotspot because the light is too bright on the one. #6172597
