Many thanks Karl for another great video and beautiful end result.

It is over 10 years since I retired from professional photography - but there was a standard dodge for these shots. The bottle sat on card covered with a diffused foil type surface - like the non-shiny side of a roll of kitchen foil. The card was angled back at 45 degrees and cut out in the shape of the bottle .

The the overhead light shone down on the card, then into the camera. Difficult to get right but it would usually give a genuine dark red appearance to the wine.

Amazing as ever Karl! :)

I use the same configuration of the set, but usually I turn the softbox at 45° horizontally from the scrim, to create a soft gradient into bottle and glass :)
