This is one of my favorite images. It has been sold quite a number of times already.
Thought I'd share with you how I did this shot.
I filled these goblets with water and added some food coloring. Red for red wine and
soy sauce for brandy and scotch.
I put them atop a white marble table which in turn gave that cool shiny reflective
surface effect.
As for the light, two speedlights inside a diy softbox (I'll blog about this in the future)
placed directly behind the goblets.
I was basically shooting against the light for this one.
Both speedlights were set 1/4. Camera settings was at Iso 200, 1/200, f5.6.
I'm very fortunate that this image is online at several microstock sites.

Hope this helps. Happy shooting!
