The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

Sterling in silhouette
I held a lighting workshop recently. Sterling was the model. I rarely shoot silhouettes but I wanted to incorporate that arch into a shot. Backlighting became an obvious choice.

That's a well spent morning. You are a little wide, there's a lot of negative space that's doesn't do anything for the product, it's a little lost in the frame. The other thing is, the wood you used is so structured it's starting to pull attention, and it doesn't add anything to your concept, it looks almost cgi. The beer brand is beach and surf related, and only the color blue works in that direction.
Technically you're fine, lighting is great, production of the bottle is good, just get in a little closer.
thanks for you input! those are some really good suggestions.
I like your shot, but I agree it's a little wide and your subject is isolated so that it almost doesn't look like the subject of the shot, but I like the lighting.
Thanks for the words! I have since cropped in a bit and I now see what you both are saying.
