Excellent picture. I like the transitions of the colours. /Jonas Svedberg

Outstanding use of light. I love the barely visible surface of the milk. Good job!

Maybe it would help to see another picture. Here's a picture of an empty glass with the internal LEDs turned on. The milk in the glass obscures the actual LEDs except for a glow at the bottom. Most of the blur at the bottom is due to a wide aperture, however. -- Victor

Cool image, how did you light it exactly?

I thought King must surely have achieved cultural icon status by now (I read trash in my spare time, so I do read him)... I'll try again:
Dark, mysterious, arcane, enigmatic, cryptic... not to mention ironic. Like a glass of milk I would expect H.P. Lovecraft to drink... late on a sleepless night while the infernal "tap, tap, tap" of the raven thunders through the house... (oops, forget the last bit, that was Poe.)
Also, as I said, very nice.

Not having read Stephen King, I don't get the reference. -- Victor

Stephen King's milk glass? Very nice.

Beautiful image Victor. Well planned and masterfully executed.

Perfect example of the "wide" and "not so wide." I love colors, too. Shu

Thanks, both of you. Ed, I would have entered it if I had thought of it. The idea for the picture didn't even cross my mind until the current challenge. I also entered it into the light mini challenge. -- Victor

Excellent image.

I'm surprised that no one has commented yet - this is fantastic, and very graphic. IMVHO it would have been a very strong entry in that previous challenge... -Ed Hahn
