Final Studio Assignment Final Image - Product Shoot 2

Indie Gibson style Solid Shape guitar 

Below is my final image for my second product portfolio piece. This image has had some work in photoshop to remove dust that was reflecting light just behind the strings around the pickups and on the pickguard. As much as I tried to remove this dust before and during the shoot and work with different lighting positions, the dust remained an issue so my best option was to remove it during the post production. The image has had the contrast increased in photoshop and the saturations increased to draw out the green of the guitar body.


f/7.1 1/160 ISO 100
My reasoning for choosing this image over the other final images I selected was because I feel that this image captures the characteristic shape of the Gibson style guitar. The shape of the body is defined by the reflections on the points of the curves and I feel that the eye is drawn to these areas first then around the other main features of the guitar which are emphasised by reflection; the tuning dials, the pickboard and to some degree the strings.
