  Comment Glass is slightly turned left (i guess so), D kuba (talk) 11:32, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  Done you are right, D kuba, it was. not much, but it´s a FP-Nomination.--Hubertl (talk) 13:40, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  Comment It still is:) D kuba (talk) 09:32, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It´s still what? Tilted? No! I believe, that the rulers in Photoshop are straight. It could be theoretically, because this is a handmade glass (really a very exceptional glass!) and therefore not perfectly straight. Even the official product picture from the producer itself is tilted. ;-) --Hubertl (talk) 10:55, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK, maybe you have right, D kuba (talk) 11:51, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose because the focus looks to be on the apple rather than on the glass itself, which is a bit soft. Also, the (nice) trick results in a disturbing cast shadow IMO. - Benh (talk) 12:44, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Can you explain your really interesting theory about focussing to the others here too, while this is a focus-bracketing picture with 35 single shots stacked with Helicon-Focus? And yes, in the background, there is a real shadow of a real apple. Does studio pictures have to be shadowless? --Hubertl (talk) 15:42, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You're right. What I noticed is a very soft glass compared to the sharp support on which it lies. I naively thought it was a result of OOF shot, but you prove me it's not. This doesn't change the fact that the whole glass is the only soft part when you ironically tried to achieve the opposite. Now for the shadow : no, studios shot don't have to be shadowless, but I can not like shadows which seem a little out of place. - Benh (talk) 16:15, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I´m glad, that this picture is surprisingly not just for me. The volume of the apple is two and a half times as much asl the glass itself. It may be different, using one of my large, 850ml bordeaux glasses. I will try another time. --Hubertl (talk) 16:41, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I've thought about this for a while now. It's a nice idea and the execution isn't bad either, but a few points keep me from supporting: I agree that the shadow is a little distracting, there is a dark halo around some parts of the glass (due to focus stacking?), the glass doesn't look very clean (may just be imperfections of the glass or scratches, I don't know, but I think a different light direction could have hidden some of those problems), the out-of-focus background has a pattern that isn't too nice, and there is some overexposure (especially on the bottom). — Julian H.^✈ 15:53, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, this is not a brand new glass. I can and will not afford new ones. It´s 77,- € each, todays price.--Hubertl (talk) 16:41, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support Cincin! --Johann Jaritz (talk) 16:30, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Julian. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:00, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Julian, and I'm not convinced by the lighting setup – there are a lot of strange reflections on the glass. --El Grafo (talk) 09:57, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not special enough for FP in my opinion even with the reflection (?) of the apple. Alvesgaspar (talk) 11:49, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Where do you see an apple REflection? There is no. ;-) --Hubertl (talk) 20:26, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Julian. Regards, Christoph Braun (talk) 13:41, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not convinced either. While it’s an interesting idea, the lighting is not suitable. Reflections on the glass are too harsh and look a bit blurry. The scratches on the glass don’t improve the impression either. And I would have chosen a brighter bottom ground for the glass to stand on. So altogether, while it’s not bad, it’s still not one of our very best images IMHO. --Kreuz schnabel 06:41, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
