Drinking Wine....Minimally

I wanted to try this and see if I could make it work. I sure am glad for Live Preview it made finding the Lighting I was looking for easier...albeit, about 1/4 of the battery life was sacrificed.

Setup

First I blocked the ambient light and elevated the wine glass for the height I was looking for.

The final step was moving the light up, down, left, right, forward and backwards to fine a light that was pleasing to my eye.

The Godex LED really isn't very powerful and I had still had issues with ambient light: "We're gonna need a bigger light!"

Hi Dean, thanks for sharing this. I think the concept has potential, but the first attempt lacking the curves that might elevate the interest.

I eagerly await the result from a larger light.
