Challenge 319: the pumpkin martini
Yes, I know it's a few weeks until Halloween, but this is a job I was given this week and I wanted to share it with you. The task was to replace the olives in a Martini glass with a pumpkin. I had no difficulty finding pictures of the pumpkin and cocktail stick, but with a range of Martini glasses to choose from I picked this one at a slight angle, rather than looking straight at the side. Placing the pumpkin inside proved harder than I expected. Just how many levels of refraction do we have to deal with here? I'd be most interested to see what you can make of this. High res is here.  |

Hi Steve, Very tricky one, this one. Tried to get a martini glass and looked at the refelection. The only thing I did was drinking the content!! 
First attempt however. Greetings, Gerard

Re: Challenge 319: the pumpkin martini
I agree Stefano. As a matter of fact, I think it would be invaluable if Steve would submit his own effort for each weekly challenge. Seeing how the our mentor interprets the brief himself, in addition to his excellent C&C, would be very beneficial. What do the rest of the FC regulars think of this idea? _________________ Lonnie |
