Taking the reflection or glare out of a highly reflective object

ASSIGNMENT

One of the hardest things to do in product photography is to take a highly reflective surface or object and diminish or eliminate the glare. The image should have an interesting highlight not one that is distracting and takes away from the product. I would like to see highly reflective objects shot with beautiful lighting.
