Short and tall...

That's me, that short glass - the grandchildren are starting to pass me already, even the 10 year old! I can't reach anything without getting the step stool, and the list goes on!
I've decided to make this a twofer for the Thursday Challenge "Space" referring to the space between the height of the short & the tall - I think it qualifies...

Canon EOS 40D ,Tamron SP AF 90mm f/2.8
1/100s f/2.8 at 90.0mm iso640 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Yvonne the strength of the liquor in the short glass, exceeds the wine in the tall glass....... voted

J. Scott Coile11-Mar-2010 13:14
Yes. The shallow focal plane isolates it perfectly in space.
Cindi Smith11-Mar-2010 12:12
Sure it does! I like your idea for the twofer! Excellent image!

I know what it is to be short too Von...but you always get to see the parade because shot people get placed up front with the kids :) Your image also shows negative space surrounding the glasses!!
Bernard Davis11-Mar-2010 10:12

Máire Uí Mhaicín11-Mar-2010 10:04
:) I can identify with your sentiments perfectly, Yvonne. Good goods in small parcels! This is a lovely shot, very well composed and presented.

Excellent contrast in sizes, and the blurred background sets them off well.
LynnH11-Mar-2010 02:41
Beautiful light and reflections on these glasses. I love the lacy doiley beneath. Always remember that GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES!!
