Thank you .. I was going for a high contrast with the monotone version .. perhaps I could have burned the edges back in but preferred it without .. cheers for commenting :)

I'm in west Dorset so not that far .. lucky you to live in the Blackdown Hills area .. I haven't been to Hemyock but that whole area is beautiful - and yes, good cider!

Clever idea .. this one intrigued me and I found myself checking the patterns to ensure it was the same image - amazing how the perception changes between the two!

I tend to take a lot of water reflections so this one appealed to me - both work well but love the monotone version the best :)

Thank you .. no special processing - I use Luminar 2018 to open raw files, add a touch of Topaz Clarity and just general contrast/levels adjustments. Perhaps the bottles look 'cleaner' due to being placed against a fuzzy background display maybe? I was wishing they'd used sharper graphics on the box but had no control over that lol :)
