Congratulations to Russ Tierney on this image. Russ from Solihull, England has won 6 months The Society of International Commercial and Industrial Photographers

Russ gives us an insight in how he got the image ''I shot it in my little studio space in Birmingham, well Bickenhill, Solihull. It's shot on a Canon 5d mk3 and 70-200L.''

''I laid a black cloth on a table with a piece of glass on top. I think frame right there's a white cotton back drop I used with lights behind it in a couple of softboxes. I have a feeling frame left I used just a white reflector, and of course there's a gridded orange gelled spot on a white wall. The label light was the most interesting as i don't have a snoot, so i taped a grid on to a long poster/print tube and went DIY styl'e just to add a little punch there. It spilled a little as you can see on the neck with some hard catchlights, but i general as it's glass an emphasis this and the shape of the bottle, i felt it was a worthy happy medium.''
