Waiting, A Play On Words
by Markjay

Like the title says... a play on words. Why?

The woman in the background is WAITING for her drink
and the WAITER has passed her by 4 times already without
having served her drink!! :-)

RK, you are absolutely right! We'll have to ask the fourth person to order something more translucent next time!! lol Markjay

Three out of four glasses/plastic cups have light flowing thru them. The one in front is flat with no backlighting.

I probably should have left the waiter in color also, diminishing the feeling the tray is suspended or "placed" into the image. Live and learn. Markjay

Clever title, markjay, but I'm not sure whether I like the selective desaturation. It looks almost as if the tray and drinks have been superimposed from another photo. I can imagine this image in an advertisement of some type, so I guess it all depends on your purpose. Interesting shot, though.
