Testing my new light tent

I have my first paying product shoot tomorrow, so I've been getting my equipment together (PVC is your friend) and doing some testing. I think this came out well - nothing fancy, just a representative sample of what I'll be shooting (kinda - lamps/glassware on a white background). Shot with the 50/1.4 at f/8 with minor processing in PS CS. 100% crops look great. Any last-minute tips or words of advice?

It looks like the left side of the bottle label is a little too blown. I looked at the reflections of the lights in the top portion of the bottle and I would suggest trying to reposition the lamp on the left side just a little to tweak it to provide more even illumination for the front and side portions of the objects you plan to shoot.

These light tents seem to please folks no end, and I can see why.
I think the minor light problems other have pointed out to you in this same thread can be overcome quite easily by you.
Hmmmmmmmm wonder how bugs go in these light tents .....
You did very well with this shot, I'd like one of those light tents myself.
Thanks for sharing, and good luck...... Skippy (Australia)
