I’m thinking of “numberizing” my souvenirs, that is to say I will take photos of things that I’ve kept for a long time with precious memories. But setting up a good still life is never an easy job. Today I started with the first object. I’ve realized that I need more props, or at least a piece of white cloth that is large enough to make a good background.
However, I’ve got these 4 photos in the end, and I can’t decide which one is best. Could you please help me?

I like the layout of 3 but maybe if you cropped it a bit more to see it in better detail?? Or I like 1 as well but maybe position the box in a clearer view x
Thank you for your suggestion. Number 3 is too bright so you can hardly see the detail of the box. And I think I a flatter drap would make the photo look better. In fact, I like number 2 the most but unfortunately the bottle is not well placed.
My favorites are #1 and #4….and you’re right, composed shots are tricky. The elements need to balance. I’m confident you’ll master this–your shots are always beautiful.
Thank you. I also think that 1 and 4 are much better composed than the other two.
