Obscure

Ok, this is probably a bit obscure, even for 'obscure'.
Condensation had gathered on the cold bottle of
water, partly obscuring its contents.
Busy busy days, so I'm way behind in commenting and
am not posting my links to the PAD challenge until
I have time to catch up.
Off work today so we went to The Outlet village in
Banbridge for some discounted retail therapy. Even
there the recession is taking its toll with an ever
increasing number of vacant units. But at least Deane's
Restaurant is still open where you can get real food
instead of the fast food one usually finds in such
places

I like this! Almost looks like a B&W except for the lemon. Well done!

beautiful for obscure

Refreshing image, i like contrast between dark areas and strong light from outside !!!
Guest 27-Apr-2011 12:56
This is great... the light behind the lemon works so well!

Love it. v

I like the thought process on this one and love the image. I'd like a tall glass myself. :)

I can see obscure here - thirst quenching too.

Slightly obscure, but refreshing! Sorry you are so busy, but glad you are still posting. No problem if you don't have time to comment on mine.

The water looks so cool and refreshing

Refreshingly obscure.

That spot of yellow is the perfect accent mark in this interesting scene.

I like your 'natural still life' shots Mairead, there's a lovely air of simplicity and unspoiltness about them...fabulous tones of light and such subtle colours too...great shot!

Wonderful obscurity
Walter Otto Koenig23-Apr-2011 15:42
Very nicely composed image. I like the bottle and the the lighting as well as your description of discounted retail therapy.

This looks so refreshing I'm going to make myself one now

Love the tones of this image. It's a fantastic shot.
Lee Rudd23-Apr-2011 13:19
refreshing and cooling!

Wonderfully composed image that's well lit and well done!

Such a lovely capture of this refreshing beverage!

Love it...the place looks inviting.....I hope this terrible economic plunge rights itself soon!!

Excellent composition and exposure! ~V

It's water. Even when obscured, it's clear. 8^> I like the splash of yellow from the lemon; not just the colour, but also the back-lighting of it. The shafts of light coming through both bottle and glass add to the feel of a (relatively) lazy restaurant break as well.

A terrific point of view and superb use of black & white and color. V

Wonderful selective color! Nice focus and bokeh too. V++
