Nice idea, good placement structure/composition and I like the treatment you gave it.

The only thing that looks a bit odd is the bottle does not show through he glass all the way down.

Nice work mate
Thanks Andy, you crease me with your brill sense of humour mate, the effect must be this refraction thing as it was like that from the start.

Cheers Rex
Yeah we get hardys and very nice it is too! ( I only drink the red stuff myself) There was condensation at first, but it didn't last long!

The plastic wrap probably was used, along with so many others I could never re-create the shot if I tried. You may be right about the colour - red grapes, should have used red wine?

Anyway thanks everyone for taking the time to comments,
