Neat Shu. theFly

Excellent. Shame about the crack or whatever it is in the relected glass, although saying that you do get the feel that it's 2 different glasses.

Exellent shot. I would never have worked out how you did it in a million years. Cheers. - alexoki

This is a terrific shot Shu even though me & the missus couldn't find the tilt:-)

Nice Shu. And, you did a nice job on the conversion. ISO800??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GEEZ, the 10D would never put out this kind of smoothen silk at that ISO - heck, not even at 200. I shoot so much low light and I just can't go over 200ISO, but always need to. I've just got to get the 20D already. Very creative shot. :) ~ Lonnit

Lots of smoke and mirrors, well done. Rich

This is one goblet lying on its side on a glass table. The goblet's reflection gives the impression of two glasses. I merely cloned out the small reflections under the droplets. If you look at it sideways you'll get the idea. BTW, the backgound is sky and clouds reflected on the table. Did you figure it out? LOL shu

Wow! how did you do that?

Jan--Ok in color, but more dramatic in B&W. The color element is not needed, IMO. shu

CLINK! If it's a "skoal," you have to be hanging on to something (in this case the stem of the wine glass.) My original idea was to eliminate the stems, but the glass did not look right in the setup, because for "skoal'" two people are holding the glasses and as you probably have noticed, this is just ONE glass. LOL shu

This is such a brain teaser!!!! I would leave the stems in as they had that extra spark. Excellent thought in this image and great execution. How is it in color? jano

Great idea! Shu. I have a similar idea and just love how you executed it. * The b/w looks nice but the bottom of the photo looks a bit odd, no biggie though. Maybe clone out the bottom stems?
