 I had this idea in my head for days but very unhappy with how this turned out, but sumbitted anyway. I edited the same shot a min before rollover and liked it more but at the end this was an interesting learning experience. So I'm not bitter at all :)

The pen was a last of the spur moment idea to get the glass to be held in place. There was some papers in there initially but I took them out because couldn't get the lighting right in time. Shot this specific frame 10min before rollover, edited before 5min. I have a few outtakes to post which will be interesting to compare.

p.s.
This got validated during voting ;)

I don't understand how you got the shadow of the glass on the right side, could you tell us a a little about how that was done because based on what is visible that shadow does not seem possible.

I am surprised this didn't do better. I thought it would, I wonder how many people didn't even pay attention to the shadow. Keep up the great work.

This is fantastic, I like it just the way it is. The shadows and mood created are great.

Surprisingly you were one of my higher scores! I didn't immediately think this was yours though. Would have expected a higher score to be honest.

Neat effect with the curved shadow but the lighting still seems a little stark
