Two glasses, one with Blueberries and one with Blackberries, I shone a light from the right side to try and highlight the colour.
V2 - without the light
Thanx to all for you V&C's on yesterday's upload of our son Nathan and his beloved dog Jesse.

The berries add good interest. Like the overall dark tones, and the reflection is a nice touch

Hi Herman...great idea and well constructed. Of the two, I prefer V2 for the tones, but got distracted by the window reflection, so have had a go at a mod Smile

Your attempt at being 'arty' has worked rather well, Herman: a pleasing arrangement of the participating components, well lit and captured in fine detail.
Keep up the good work.

Don't know about arty, but I can tell you is is beautifully juicy!! It certainly appeals to me.
In a past life I have been a fruit juice engineer, I even wrote my ME thesis about it (not a joke, it was electro mechanical engineering Smile but I wanted a practical thing to do) I can ASSURE you that this would have made a red fruit mix label.
