Jeff,
It was worth the wait! Very nice pen, and I like your presentation. You might also consider posing the pen with another blank of the same wood. The gray background looks good, and does not pull any visual attention from the pen.

Jeff that looks good, crop excess background and increase size of width to 600 pixels should make everything near perfect.

I would say give the pen a 1/4 twist, and show the clip a little more. It is in the shadow a little too much IMO.
Great choice of wood, it makes a very nice looking pen.

First off, looks like you did a nice job on the pen. Is that Olive?

Place the pen on a diagonal in the photo. You will be able to get a larger image in the same area.

The image still seems out of focus. It looks like the Auto Focus is play tricks on you. If you look at the very bottom of the image you will see it is in better focus.

Try and smooth out your background

Jeff,
I can say that looking at your original photos compared to these, you have done a great job and greatly increased your results. The photos you emailed to me look great too. Here is one of the ones that you sent me. I hope you don't mind me posting it, but I think you did a great job on both the pen and the photo. I resized it slightly to make it smoother here...
You are definately on the right track. Keep tinkering with backgrounds and angles until you find what you like and are easy to repeat. Keep up the great work.

with the advantage of having two of your photos. I can make some comparisons.
First, much improvment over the last photo you posted. the focus is much better but it is still a little fuzzy. auto focus will do that with real close up shots. backing the camera up even a few inches will sometimes help just keep experimenting withthe distance your camera needs you cna always crop out the extra background and leave the picture filled with the pen.
two lights from different angles woudl help get more light under the pen, the shadow is still to dark. if you look at the photo Fangar shared, elevating the pen allowed more light to get under it so you can see shat sort of difference that makes. and to repeat Fangar, you are on the right track. So keep playing around. make very small changes from what you are doing and ou will find other situations that fit your taste.
