 Last minute deal - filled a glass with water, which I slightly tinted with turquoise ink. Put it outside on the balcony railing and shot up against the sky. The sun was just setting.

Nice focus on the condensation Alicia. Too bad this was basic, a darker sky could have elevated this to over 6. Now i'm thirsty...

I liked the simplicity of this. The condensation on the glass was perfect. I can feel this freezing my teeth right now lol.

Very cool (lol) but the "sweat" looks a bit oversharpened.

Definitely cold. Good job.

I think I would have added a black border around the other three sides or even all four.
