Although I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, it isn't exactly how I pictured it in my mind. I really wanted them to be backlit but just couldn't get it right.
Did you know...it is impossible to get jelly orange slices in the store anymore. Or gumdrops. So I had to order them. And the slices arrived half melted. So the pretty dust of sugar on them (and the sparkle) didn't happen. And they kept tearing when I tried to pull them out. And they kept breaking and falling off the glasses.
And they were sticky. Very, very, very sticky... Even after washing my hands every time I had to handle them, I kept getting stuck on the bg paper like a fly on fly paper. It was not pretty...
But I hope you like the shot.

You serve up four very colorful cocktails that are eye-catching! Great color and detail in this sweet composition. My only critique is that the lighting leaves some distracting shadows on the ground plane - playing with the angles of the lights, light tent, or have a few reflectors would reduce/remove those shadows.
What a great idea, but I wonder how it would look without the fizzy water bubbles? I'm wondering if water was even needed? Anyway great layout and idea!
