Still water of life.

Uploaded: January 14, 2006

Description

Dalwhinnie, a fine single malt scotch, in still life. It transforms people from sober to... not sober! :)

F/2.2, 1/125s, 50mm, ISO-1600, tripod, lit by 2 floods with phillips natural light bulbs.

Adjusted in PSE 2.0 with vivid light filter (partially transparent) and some gausian blur, erased back areas of detail.

Nice shot Marty, hope you were in the pre-transformed state while handling your equipment. #2347786

Thanks Dan. Yes, that's why there the glass is still full! ;P

BTW, this was taken on New Year's morning at around 1AM. Other people get drunk that night, I take pictures of booze... That says something, I'm just not sure what?!?!
