Not fully satisfied... only had two glasses and had to go to work so I couldn't complete this shot really. But well, last minute submission so we'll see how it goes... :)

Choice capture! How many glasses did you have to break to get a decent shot? I wanted to do something like this too but my wife wouldn't let me near the glass cabinet :-) Your image is good, the black and white works well. I would have chosen a different angle on the shot without the power lines in the background.
Creative approach to the challenge! (How many times did you have to drop something to capture it just right?). I like the background and the desaturated colors, but it's a pity the powerlines in the distance are still there... just a bit too distracting. --8
i thought there would be 100 of these, but after 200 votes this is only the second. nice capture of a very difficult subject (unless you have a LOT of glasses). i hope you enjoyed the pint first. BW a good choice, and the long lens was also a good choice - much higher DOD :)
Challenging idea. (Thought about trying it myself, but wasn't motivated enough...) Pretty good job of stopping the motion, but the focus isn't real clear, probably due to the shallow DOF. The lighting doesn't help either. The monotone treatment - it's OK, but not real striking. Good try, results aren't too bad.
