Toothbrush

Personal project. I love the beauty that is to be found in everyday products. The toothpaste was a nightmare to photograph:)

Simple but beautiful

Thank you Lee :)

Very cool, nicely done Mikael

Thank you Brian! Your work is really nice as well:)

Awesome Light!

Thank you Carlos!

Love the pleasing, graphic aesthetic in this. May I ask were the sparkles on the bottom of the toothpaste and top right of the brush added in post? Their subtlety finish off the image nicely for me :)

Thank you Alan! Yes, those were added in post. I had some similar "real sparks" that occurred naturally on this image that inspired me to add these.

Great job man!

Thanks Marco!

beautiful grading. simple and effective

Great job for a usually mundane object. You made it look like a luxury item.

I am an amateur photographer at best. I took a 5 years hiatus from photography. Just got back into it this year with a new focus. I have been pushing myself to shoot things and looking for beauty in everyday objects and products as you mentioned. I am training my eye to be nonjudgmental.
