How to shoot colorless glass objects?

As we all know, glass products are difficult to shoot. There are two main reasons: one is its transparency, and the other is its reflectivity. Difficulties caused by transparency: Any clutter in the background can't be hidden. The difficulty caused by reflectivity is that as long as there is a light source next to it, a bright spot will be reflected from the glass surface.

Of course, there are ways to solve these two problems. The method introduced by Hua Weng is: make a wooden frame (height 20 cm), and the width can be flexibly controlled according to the size of the ship you want to shoot (Hua Weng made it 80×50×20, length, width and height). The light source is arranged in the frame, and the flower Weng uses six different 100W white bulbs, and the lamp mouth covers the rice. Bottle? 1.One in 5 yuan) Pull two glasses of the same size according to the size of the frame and put them on the frame, then spread a piece of pure white cloth (or use white paper). Put a quick glass on it, do you understand? The light is from the bottom up. This not only avoids the clutter of the background, but also avoids annoying light spots. The black line on the edge of the glassware can just outline the beautiful outline of the glassware.

The shooting angle is from top to bottom. The advantages of this angle are: first, the front and rear vessels can be accommodated in a depth of field, and both can be photographed clearly. The second is to avoid the boundary between the background of flat lens shooting and glass contact. Still life photography usually takes close shots, and the depth of field of close shots is very short. If the angle of flat shooting is adopted, there will often be a phenomenon that the former is true and the latter is false, ignoring one thing.
