Spaten Ice – Photo of the Day #61

Spaten Ice

As a continuation of yesterday’s picture, I had the great idea of using my Spaten steins from Zanetoberfest. I had about 8 or 9 others before this that did not turn out just right then I figured I’d just take the diffuser off and strobe it straight into the back of the glasses. I thought it looked great in camera but the larger resolution just screamed to me. I really like this, with the light diffraction through the glass in the center to discolor to a light purple/mauve and then the diffusion across the floor.
