Half Full...
This is the second time for an image like this. Applying some of the things I learned the last time, I used a nicer glass, moved the black card on the white side of the image further away, and left the alcohol out of the water because surface tension was not a problem this time.
Strobist Info:
Canon 580 exii at 1/4 power with blue MagGel and Rosco #360 behind and camera right.
YN-560EXiii at 1/2.3 power behind subject and camera left.
Both lights shot through translum and separated by a white foam core board. The dark line between white and blue is the card. I tried moving the separator board away from the background, but it created a funny not so white line which was pretty ugly. If I had used a thinner material the line would not be as noticeable. Maybe using a shallower depth of field to blur the line would have worked too.
