I know this has been done before, probably several times. But, I've never done it and I wanted to learn a bit about lighting. I learned that glass is hard to work with! The background is a very old beach towel that has seen better days. It was so stretched out of shape that it wouldn't hang evenly so things are not as straight as they could have been. Anyway, I am pleased with the results and I hope the voters like it.

Very nice! My only nitpick, it's very small, is that the stripes in the background don't meet up perfectly with the stripes in the mirror. But I only noticed this on my second pass.
now I see patriotism here although it is no where mentioned in title. great shot. this is like 3 identical subjects with one small difference in each. I love that subtle change. It makes us easier to connect to without giving us 3 different subjects totally way different but somehow connects to each other. Very though provoking image.
I bet this one was a challenge to setup. My only suggestion would be to have had a shallower dof to help blur the edge of the table in the back, as the colors don't line up perfectly. Otherwise very nice work.
A fresh take on the colored glasses shot! I like the beach towel for the backdrop and how the glasses pick up the stripes. Great reflection of the glass stems, too. :)
