The set up:
1. A blackboard
2. a bottle place on the black board
3. a tripod is set up to take a photo DIRECTLY above the bottle and place it on th elft hand corner.
And here's the steps to getting it done:
First, the tripod is moved to take the photo of the bottle sideways (the Label) WITH flash, then it is promptly moved up and left it there for the remainder of the 8 second exposure on teh bottle on the top down view. The flash allows a very quick exposure of the side bottle to show up with the slow exposure on the upper left hand corner. Thus, the illusion is that the photo has two bottles even though it's the same one.
How did i figure it out? I was drunk when I took the photo :) seriously, i was heavily intoxicated with beer....

It's a nice photo and I do like the transparent-ness of the beer bottle, but I am less than fully "getting" the illusion. Still, it's very nice and deserves a 7 at least. 7 for now. Swash
It takes a second, but the round thing in the upper left finally started looking like the top of the bottle. At first I thought it was the bottom. Interesting composition and colors. karmat
