P.S.  Oh, by the way those are beautiful photos.  Would love to see a wide shot of your photo set up. 

Sure... it's just a large and low table I cobbled together from metal parts, timber sheeting, castors and a large sheet of tempered glass with the verso painted black. It's a PVC photographic backdrop hung on the wall. And it's lit with three ancient photography lights I've picked up cheaply over the years.

I'd agree - very good pix - certainly for clear glass I think you have to go the extra mile to produce images worth sending over the ether, and having the extra space does help.     Clear glass can be a real pain at times to get even half right - I especially like the reflection effect from the table.              Suppose the pattern on the lower half of the jug might be called 'herringbone'.

Clear glass is (now) a doddle. It's just opaque glass I'm having problems with at the moment!

Used to be the other way around.
