Dark Field Lighting is something I've been tinkering with, but didn't want to show off until I was close enough to the Grolsch ads. It involves lighting a glass subject at such an angle that the front and rear of the glass do not flare up, but the thickest sections at the sides (which refract at a slightly different angle, and involves creating a rim light with an accuracy of 1 degree) does illuminate. This gives you an incredible uniform rim light as well, which really defines the surfaces and contours of the glass.
I am exceptionally chuffed with these pics to say the least :)
P.s, my friend Claire brought these funky Lucky beer bottles all the way back from Australia, even paying excess baggage instead of chucking them... Much Appreciated, will find out what they taste like when they've cooled down again!
