20090213 - In Vino SP

For: Four Colour February

Oooh, Latin. I must've been brain-addled by yesterday's TITTC! lol

This was more difficult than I expected! A flash on me and the bottle, one snooted behind the glass to bring out the reds and put them on the table (that bit just happened, didn't plan that!)

The faint vertical line on the left is the kitchen door. I thought about cloning it out, but then decided on honesty. lol. There's also a bit of one of the flash guns visible under the glass, to the right.
I did clone out dust motes on the glass though - they're fair game :-)
