How not to photograph a kettle

[Simpo Two]

I'm looking for a new kettle and Google images brought up this beauty. It's so bad it's almost good:



Or is it the latest style and the photographer is actually a top geezer on thousands a day?

I dont think he's a highly paid pro....

what's going on with the two on the right?

I can only think the client said 'We'll take it to a studio to be photographed', but took it to a dance studio by mistake...

I can help with the kettle decision - don't buy a Tefal Quick cup - they are poo.



Anybody want to buy a lightly used Tefal quick cup? It's brilliant honest.

I came in here expecting to see the photograph from many years ago on Ebay with the guy photographing it in his underwear...

At least this is a new take.

Reflectoporn,

' Like any other community, eBay has its subversives. Consider the recent craze for "reflecto-porn" - in which the reflection of a naked body can be discerned in an apparently innocent picture of an auction item. Images of naked vendors have been spotted in kettles, televisions and even cutlery. It is remarkable, given the abundance of websites dedicated to amateur exhibitionists, that anyone should go to such lengths to sneak past eBay's nudity censors. But freedom, as Evelyn Waugh observed, produces sterility.'
