This image is of a MOMO KAWA Rice Wine (Sake) bottle photographed in studio using my new \u201cStrip Light\u201d soft boxes and shot with a Nikon D800 through Nikkor AF 180mm F\/2.8 prime lens. Each soft box (one on either side) housed a White Lightning Ultra\u00a01200 set to it lowest possible power so that the lens aperture could be set to F\/2.8 @ 50 ISO in order to maximize the <i><b>bokeh<\/b><\/i> effect making the background fall way out of focus. The light splashed onto the backdrop was a done with a single White Lightning Ultra 600 set to its maximum output using a 20\u00ba Honeycomb grid and a Rosco 181 Congo Blue gel filter. There was no need for any Adobe Photoshop post-production alterations. All effects were achieve in a practical manor, using lighting and camera setting alone.<br \/>\n\u00a92015 Eric James Swearingen<br \/>\n#ArtofEricJames<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button
