Comment from Sange
I often wonder why people who think they are
"super photographers" don't look in your portfolio.
It's laughable the RIDICULOUS ranks that deem one #1 year after year when they can't come close to this type of work.
I don't drink cognac, but I do want that bottle!
As usual your work stands out and no one comes close to what you do here on Far.
Excellent work Cara ;)

Comment from supergold
obviously Larsen like many other people decided to stay in Bordeaux where he discovered the cognac even if Bordeaux is most famous for the best red wine;

Comment from ArtisticChick
This is so beautiful and magical looking. I'm not a cognac drinker but this sure makes a tempting advertisement. I would try selling to the manufacturer. I'm not sure of your alcohol laws are in Norway. I know when I was in Sweden, the alcohol tax was so high, that everyone went to Denmark. Regardless, the manufacturer has sales abroad. This is something I would see at Christmas in a liquor store. Or in a magazine.

Gorgeous advertisement photo. I could go on about how beautifully done this is because I honestly see nothing negative about it. Thanks for sharing!

Really think although you do a lot of inside work as opposed to going out and getting outside images you really are a cut above the rest of us in regards to this type of work,the different theme of this one somehow is a cut above your usual flower ones [hence the six] different in its context for sure...Brian

I lost any interest I had in 'booze' many years ago so details about this Larsen guy mean nothing to me but I'm honestly enjoying this fine looking presentation!
( I especially the look of that stylized Viking 'Dragon Ship'! : D )

What a great image! Love the warmth of the picture. This would be a great ad for the famous Larsen Cognac. I am enjoying your technique. Thank you also for the educational write up. Cheers!

This is a gorgeous scene with the vessel in front and the background with the sparkles, lights and lettering. You deserve a "6". The goblet is lovely; your capture of it all is outstanding also.
