I got the idea for this image from Jeffery Levy. He has many unique images in his gallery.
I broke four wine glasses trying to do this.
1/50s at f/4.5, ISO 400

When I clicked on this thumbnail to make a comment, I somehow already knew it was one of your images, Irene. Superb as always. I seem to recognize this glass and it's "contents" from another image, right?

  Was this done with jello in the glasses? Just curious. Lovely composition and the colors really compliment each other well. Nice lighting too! Might try it after the holidays as I hadn't thought of all the potential glass breakage -lol!

  I have no idea how you did this but it's totally wonderful and a well deserved EfP. I would have broken a lot more then a few wine glasses and then just given up and drank the wine. LOL

Guess they didn't like my 11/14 either. When I see your pick posted I know they are by mine. LOL

  Simply stunning, Irene !!!! I read Jeffrey's explanation on how he did this and I see alot of work went into both his & your images. In my eyes, your image is as worthy of a Grande Prize Win if. Your lighting is gorgeous and the extra glass is perfect.
