Very nice! It's a very enjoyable photograph, and you've achieved some pretty impressive results with the salt printing technique (which I admittedly know very little about). Can you tell us about the other works that are part of this body of work, and the group as a whole?

wow! I have had this idea in my head for a while, and here it is materialized! nice work. I like all the space you have left around the can. I also love the metal high-lights. did you use straight on strobes or a softbox?

Thank you John for your generous explanation. It puts the photograph in a whole other perspective. I love it.

Interesting print almost looks like its floating, reminds me of an Irving Penn platinum print i was saw recently where he photographed discarded cigarette butts, it nice to see the salt print technique being used, well done.
