Pomegranate Martini

This is a discussion on Pomegranate Martini within the Architecture & Man Made (cities, buildings, roads, objects & abstracts) forums, part of the Show your photo (Color) - Landscape & Nature (flowers, mountains, storms etc.) category; It reminds me of something else, but I can't quite put my finger on it. I hate it when that ...

    It reminds me of something else, but I can't quite put my finger on it. I hate it when that happens. I mean, its right on the tip of my tongue. Oh well, it'll come to me. It always does.

    Reminds me of the blood that will be lost this season by the So. Car Gamecocks and the Clemson Tigers!!!

    Seriously, I don't know how old you are, but it reminds me of an old Memorex cassette tape commercial.

    I am not sure if it is just me, but the glass seems tilted just a tad to the right. The right side corner of the liquid is just lower than the left side corner. I might be nitpicking (little things like this drive me crazy, I guess I am a little OCC).

    It is a beautiful image, tho.

    Twelve hours later and man does my head hurt. Yep, its a tad off. It looked straight last night. I'll fix it later.

    Now, lets talk about this loss of blood. I hope you guys, and everyone else in the SEC, clobber the lamecocks this year. I just don't understand why you're being so mean to my Tigers. ;-)

    Maybe you were partaking in the martinis, thats why it looked straight. I do enjoy martinis. I only like vodka, little dirty, shake the crap out of it, straight up. Nothing better than those ice flakes in the martini.

    BTW, I am watching the Gamecocks right now,whipping up on UNC.

    I like mine that way, too. Had a couple of those before I snapped this one and a few more of the flavored ones in post. Moral of the story... don't drink and edit.

    Very strong image - Lots going for it including symmetry. i dig it!
    My only comment would be that it might be cool to play with the negative space a bit more.
    Cropping 1/4 inch from the left and right would make the diagonal of the glass match the image's diagonal even better.
    Just a thought.
