Beer

Evening all.

Got bored watching the Wimbledon replays earlier on this evening so decided to see what I could make with a bottle of beer that I was about to drink.

Just a couple of macros:

Chilled


Time for a Beer


I can get down to actually drinking it now!

C&C appreciated if you have any thoughts.

Cheers.

Re: Beer

It's all about being creative isn't it? I'd never have thought of taking a pic of a bottle of beer. Very good indeed It's made me think about taking pics of mundane everyday objects - guess a macro lens comes in handy.

How about "mundane everyday objects" as the theme for the next comp, or someone could start a thread...

Both look good enough to drink to me!

Re: Beer

Thanks guys.

Yeah, a macro lens certainly helps to make something of interest out of everyday items. Probably my favourite lens at the moment.

Cheers.

Re: Beer

I keep thinking about a dedicated macro lens and seeing pics like this just convinces me more.
