Jewelled Remnant

Finishing up a glass of red wine after dinner on the junk anchored out at Halong Bay, Vietnam, I couldn't help but notice the play of lights against the wine glass and the last drop of red wine within, creating a lovely shadow of a sparkling pink sapphire against the crisp white linen.

A drop of red wine

This particular shot brought back sweet memories of the six Gorge(ou)s gossiping late into the night while sipping on our glasses of red wine, sharing life anecdotes, and laughing with carefree abandon. To me, that little sparkle of red represents the precious jewel of friendship shared!

thanks foodcrazee, it's not that difficult, the shadows here were created due to the overhead lighting thrown against the glass. With the camera, hold firm and shoot without flash, which means a longer exposure to get the natural light.

Btw, ur such a good boy, u really dun drink beer at all?
