A broken martini glass with lipstick on it, a half-eaten maraschino cherry, a broken cocktail umbrella, all on the side of the nighttime road...what happened? Who would walk down a road wearing red lipstick and sipping a frou-frou martini? Who cares, now, that all that's left is what you see here.
Setup - tripod and camera in ditch bordering my property, trying to minimize the amount of foliage between me and the glass, had to keep yanking up handfuls of grass. Used the headlight glow from approaching vehicles - and the fact that it was a drizzly night - for the lighting and water spots.
pp: shot RAW, crop, brightness/contrast, vibrance/saturation, burn out grass in foreground, minor cloning, some dodging on umbrella, resize, sharpen, save for web
