The red photos I loved got less than rave reviews. Been pretty bummed about that since I loved them so (guess that's all that matters, as I printed one for myself), but nonetheless, want a good entry.

I got a 1.5 million candlepower spotlight this week. So I shined it at some blue glasses on a blue stool. This is what happened:

little different RAW interpretation, slightly diferent angle too:

I had a hard time with:
-focus
-DOF
-hotspots

I may be conceding this challenge...

Pretty sweet.
I wonder what would happen if you filled the glasses half way with water or something solid, like milk.

And i think some backlight would be nice to seperate it from the background.

Just thoughts. Nice photo

no no no, I didn't say shoot from above, I said light from above. Shoot front, same as your first try.

good idea... but how am I supposed to get high enough to shoot my stepping stool without it!!! :lol3
