Focus Stacking ~ New to Me
I am interested in learning Macro/Closeup photography and understanding that Focus Bracketing is a good part of the process, I thought I would give focus stacking a try.

Vintage Lens
Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5. NOTE: With this lens the minimum focusing distance is 18" at which point you have 1/4" depth of field.

Austin, Texas Blue Hour
Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.
Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!

Two from Tenerife
My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.

I think overall it's a good shot but the problem I have with it is the brightness of the orange lens flares. As they are so bright your eye does not focus on the label which is the most important focal point in logo emphasizing. Also the right edge of the label appears to be slightly out focus.
It's a good start & I agree with all of B A Taylor's comments above. I feel that the liquid needs more light coming through it to produce a warming glow. This would help make the bottle more the star of the image rather than the background.
Great job though - I am being pedantic and I know how hard bottles are to shoot!
