FIRST PLACE
Tequila Sunrise
by MFC

This is my "photographic impression" of a tequila sunrise,
the mixed drink made with tequila and orange juice.
Best viewed in the original version.
***
I had a lot of fun with a mirror, a half slice of orange, honey, a small frosted
tequila bottle, black and red poster boards, and two halogen desk lamps.
The poster boards were positioned above the mirror to get the
overall lighting, shadow, and color effects I was trying to achieve.

Simply one of the best shots I have seen. Awesome................Vikas

Guest 26-Nov-2002 05:57
Awesome as always. Great colors and the spilt tequila almost looks like mercury.

Another beautiful image. What more can I say? Simply "wow"! Thanks for sharing your technique. florg

As others have noted, this photo yelled "MFC" before I even saw your name below it. Wonderful shot. I love the look of the honey on the mirror. --Mike Ezell

Excellent image! What perfect colors for a sunset. I also like the idea of having a frosted bottle instead of transparent one. Thanks for sharing the honey idea. That's one to keep for another time.

Wow...you continue to surprise and impress us! Well done, very well done! ~Nee

Okay, this is just stunning. Beautiful image, witty take on the theme, clever title -- it's got everything.

Wow!!! Another fantastic entry! The color, composition, lighting, originality, technical skill, etc. etc. etc. are all bench marks against which I measure images. Looking at your work is like going to an art gallery and just studying perfection for a while. Thanks, Mike, for sharing your technique. Bev

Faye White 24-Nov-2002 15:07
I'm so grateful that you shared your methods with us - I'll have to store the "honey"
idea away for another day. :) A perfect shot Mike - the colors are so rich and the composition is excellent. -faye

Mike, you've GOT to stop doing this! How are we ever going to vote if you enter all these incredible images ? :-) IMO, this is one of the best images I've ever seen from you! Mark J

Willem 24-Nov-2002 08:29
Just : WOW !!!! Could indeed have been without your signature, it is like an anonymous Rembrandt, you recognise the master anyway. Although some of the students (us here at stfchallenge) try to learn the style.

A superb image with a great combination of colors and shapes. - R. J. (Imager)

Really stunning, Mike! I knew it was yours even before I saw your name. Helen

Guest 24-Nov-2002 03:02
Many years ago I had a bad experience with a Tequila Sunrise. I won't go into detail, but I have avoided them ever since. Your picture has me looking at them in a completely different light. I really like this Tequila Sunrise. Great shot.
