Something for a long tough day. Looks like a liquor advertisement.

Congratulations, Oliver. Lovely image, beautiful colour. Fake ice? How cool is that?

This is very well shot and the colours are wonderful. I really like the way each ribbon winner in this challenge has as their primary colour the same as their ribbon.

Tea as little as bourbon; if I' had to choose it would be single malt scotch whiskey of course!

Running late in my congrats.

Congrats! :)

(btw, the spell checker doesn't recognized blech as a word. It suggested blench. Which I guess is appropriate, too. But a little strange. I can't remember the last time I used blench... :)

Huge fan of this photo! Love how the background lighting matches what I thought was bourbon :-)

Gorgeous, professional. I would like to have the know-how. I suspect your photos require a lot of clean-up between takes!
