Introspection

My goal was to use a reflective surface to highlight the subject, and wanted to light to almost silhouette the glass. Unfortunately, this made lighting the picture difficult, as I needed to find a balance between the bright outer sheen of the cup and concealing the undesirable reflections on its surface. Additionally, the angle at which I took the photo was limited because the surface itself was only about 6x10 square inches, and I didn't want my actual light source (a window above the glass) to be reflected. I used editing software to try to make the image a little brighter.
