The bottle was dropped by labuda onto a semi-soft white backdrop. the bottle would bounce a little and make a splash. this image is rotated 90o, splash is going upwards.
and of course this wasnt real beer, were not that inconsiderate... ginger ale with a little colour ;)

How'd you get the background so white?


external flash onto a white backdrop will do the trick. here we used two of them on the backround and one on the bottle

I don't understand how this didn't make it to #1. It sure deserves to be there.

Very good Piotr, Excellent composition and an A for creativity.

Although I thought there was something in the basic editing rules forbidding the use of fake beer. ;)

I really like this! Great entry.

Nice capture. I like the curve of the liquid. Had there been a hand or fingers trying to grasp at the bottle I would have scored this even higher. Well done though.

Nicely done. This meets the challenge perfectly, while still being a very appealing photo!

Nice capture. One of the better ones in this challenge for sure. The composition/cropping is nice and the focus is good...... 8

nice freeze, great sharpness on bottle
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very interesting. I think I understand part of how you accomplished this, but certainly not all...

I'll note, though, that (and perhaps this is just my technically-oriented mind at work, but) I didn't immediately see this as what I'm guessing it's intended to look like -- a bottle flying through space. Still, it's interesting, and technically very nice. 8 from me.

Interesting....how many beers did u waste though is the troubling part....good capture, dof, and composition. 7

A little dark IMO but excellent concept - Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/30/2005 12:46:51 PM
I'm going to guess this has been rotated but not because it looks like it was. Nice color and crisp lines. For perfection I'd like to see the background more consistent, but it is hardly a gripe. I like the simple boarder. Cool photo!

wow! excellent image and capture - one of my faves in this challenge - nice work!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/28/2005 10:32:59 PM
While the spill is very interesting my eyes are drawn to that bottle -- what's going on?? Would be more effective if bottle was opaque or at least the scene lit in such a way that the image isn't tilted. Also looks like something in the bottle.

I gave you a 9 but will take it back if you don't say how it was done. I'm new here and I love this type of shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/28/2005 01:17:14 PM
I am sure this was no one take with lots of clean up. Good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/28/2005 08:56:53 AM
I'd try this with a different backdrop, but it's still fine.
