Hi Americo,
I
I agree with Paul. Lose the mouse, and bring in more of the photos in to focus.

Hello all,and thank you for your responses! You know that is exactly what my wife said about the mouse! What I told her was that I was kind of going with the whole retro modern mix of life in a way. her purse is a vintage LV and the mouse is obviously this era, so that was in a sense my idea and composition. i am new to this whole camera,flash, life stuff, so therefore things are sometimes odd. the black and white reflected my thoughts based on the vintage purse,although the purse isn
Oh also i do have more shots, but i didnt want to flood this post! i think if you click the link you can see the rest? if not i can post the fliker account for more. thanks again everyone!
I agree with everything that was said above.
Also going along the lines of having a clearer focus of the image, I would bring the bottle and the glass together more. Right now things are scattered and the eye wanders a lot when you first look at it.
LIghting wise, it would seem the flash is hitting the wall above the bag. I would angle the flash so the bounce flash is coming from a lower angle to light up the bottom frame a little bit more. It will take focus away from the brightly lit wall and bring it down more to the real focus of the image.

Great idea TakahiroW4047! Im testing the new old Vivitar,and man its crazy! thanks again for all of your other pointers as well! the image below is just as bad!

@Do you not know how to rotate a picture back to the vertical position? No not really, but im sure its very simple as long as I take that next step lol! i try to move fast when possible, and i think that clouds my "vision", but i will take notice and do so asap!the 5D does have that as an option, but i felt it may slow, or degrade my photo! also i havent been using the jpg and raw option so now i may suffer a little loss of quality, or the ability to fix things :( im not very schooled to cs5 or the like, so ill need to use those when possible, and certainly before posting again! im just a bit over excited about using flash, and taking photos! i need to get those books everyone has recommended as well lol! thank again Rich Sincerely deprived, Amercio Salazar
@ Sincerely deprived,
I have a 7D, but, you can do this in camera, under Menu rotate images...enable..
Or, most photo software will usually have an icon that looks like a curved arrow forming a semi-circle, either going clockwise or counterclockwise that will rotate the image.
Something like that!
It won
eww i cropped it and made it look like some strange weird funky odd unusual poor Dali portrayal! well Dali portrayal would be giving myself way to much credit! i mean to say,well look...

Great Shot!
I think that this may be your best shot to date!

@ Mr.Rich, I will use this at default now,and see how things go fro there. I worried that it was going to either affect IQ, or sow down the ever so awesome well aged 5D! I am still "green" at this so learning is going to be slo-oooow,and painful for the viewers :) -Sincerely everyone
Thanks Rich! I have been trying to understand the whole process and use my equipment when possible! A little secret of mine is that the glass contains my drinking coffee, and not the sparkling champagne as shot. the Rossi is a smaller portion sold at Costplus World Markets lol! www.worldmarket.com/.../index.jsp
here is one i used to practice flash on,ugh it is pretty yucky though, and i cringe at the thought of sharing it,and also annoying others here! So I apologize everyone,and i hope it at least humors you with my bad lack of skills shot! the cards are from my childhood collection from the early to mid 1980's,and early 90's!

Americo,
If you think it is yucky, what makes you post it. And then apologize.
To what purpose is the shot. I am curious.
Excuse me if I sound out of line. And why all the different posting names?
